Since Anna Todd started publishing chapters of distance On Wattpad at the age of 24 after being inspired by One Direction’s Harry Styles and Jane Austen’s pride and prejudiceThe author has had an incredible journey. From becoming a bestselling author – with her books translated worldwide – to adapting the series in a file Successful movie franchise Starring Hero Fiennes Tiffin and Josephine Langford, she’d like to try new things. Now, the tumultuous romance of Hardin and Tessa continues its journey in another new medium: the graphic novel series.
Anna Todd spoke with CinemaBlend about moving her popular romance series to a new format as the first volume of After: the graphic novel Illustrations by Pablo Andres hit the shelves. During our conversation, the author recalled what it was like to present hot sex scenes to Tessa and Hardin in the new format. In her words:
It was definitely a balance. I wanted to make sure they were still there because that’s part of their story, their journey, and the connection that they have. But I will say that sometimes the illustrations will come back and the facial expressions will be a little weird. It was definitely a slew of reruns, like “Cut That Back” or “Change Mouth”. Sometimes Tessa’s body can look really stiff and say, “We should add some movement somehow on the page.” Otherwise, it would be kinda scary. And for a lot of facial expressions, it takes a small corner of the mouth to open a certain way before it looks like they’re screaming. So, the sex scenes, I would say were definitely the hardest. And I know they’re going to get more and more complicated as we go deeper into this series, but it was also entertaining. We had a lot of laughs.
When Anna wanted to write a file distance A series, it can manipulate language and leave exciting images to the reader’s imagination. For the graphic novel, Todd was hands-on with sex scenes. They still need to be in the story, but making sure the sexual relationship is portrayed in a satisfying way seems to be a little tricky.
The writer shared this with me while I initially thought people might be “sick” of more distance Now, I came up with the idea after looking at several other graphic novels, mainly from other countries. Now this After: the graphic novel Posted, she shared her favorite moments from the new release, including one she saw was really missing distance Made into a movie:
The lake scene will always be my favorite, whether it’s the movie or the book and it’s emotionally close to me and a fan favorite. So always, that’s the thing I’ve been anticipating people’s reactions to. And this was the first kind of intimate scene, you know, which was tricky in graphic novel form because it can swing really fast if you don’t pull the lines right. It was really fun to see. And then also when Harden throws Tessa papers around the room and they kiss her in her room, it’s just something missing from the movie adaptation and just a scene that I feel presents some kind of enemy to the lovers as is the story.
over the years, distance she has I have amassed a large number of followers Who followed the book series that was turned into a movie series. Like The distance Movies Soon, after the third installment After we fell Leave the fans with the end of the cliffhanger And after happiness In the future, fans can relive the beginning of the story in the form of a graphic novel.
While he was talking about the new distance Edition, now available for purchase on it AmazonAnna Todd also spoke about why she feels that more romances should be graphic novels. You would like this said:
I think everything works well in the romantic genre. We just didn’t take care of it that way. Superheroes and fantasy genres have them, so I think it’s an audience that has definitely been underestimated. I feel like a lover of romance, we love waiting and dying for content. So I think it worked because we also like stories that we like, and we like romance in general, but that’s because it’s like the dual senses too, it’s visible and it’s read. As women, we are more thoughtful creatures. So it gives you that, but it also has the visuals. I guess we haven’t served it right, now that I’ve learned a lot from other countries that have done it really well. In the US specifically in English stories, I don’t feel like we’ve gotten very far with romance, but we’ve got there.
