Animorphs co-creator Michael Grant shared that the series' original creators won't be participating in its upcoming film adaptation.

"With great sadness, we have decided not to participate further in the [Picture Start] effort," Grant tweeted on social media, announcing his decision to cut ties with the film.

"We may post a full explanation on Reddit later, but for now let's go with 'creative differences,'" he added. The author then directed his followers to Rick Riordan's website, discussing his experience with the Percy Jackson films.

Later, Grant relayed a follow-up tweet to fans, clarifying that Picture Start -- the production company slated to produce the upcoming Animorphs film -- "isn't up to anything nefarious."

"Decisions we had hoped to be involved in were made without us - as is their legal right," he added. "But we have a policy: we don't claim or accept credit for things we didn't actually do."

He clarified further to this tweet as well, saying he wished the film the best, but due to the production company seemingly not creating enough space for the creators to share feedback, he felt it best to step away from the project overall which echoed what creators like Riordan have said before about adapting written works with production teams who don't necessarily heed warnings nor openly look for feedback from the material's original creator(s).

Riordan famously expressed disdain for the film adaptations of his popular books Percy Jackson and the Olympians: The Lightning Thief and its sequel, Sea of Monsters, saying the films should be censored.

Riordan is now involved in a separate adaptation of Percy Jackson coming to Disney+, which he believes will "fix" the problems with the movies.

Like Riordan, Avatar: The Last Airbender creators Michael Dante DiMartino and Bryan Konietzko also announced their departure from an upcoming adaptation of their work. Creators left the Netflix adaptation of their popular Nickelodeon series for similar reasons of feeling like the production team wanted to create something from the original, without really investing in the original creators' views.

"Netflix’s live-action adaptation of Avatar has the potential to be good," DiMartino wrote. "It might turn out to be a show many of you end up enjoying. But what I can be certain about is that whatever version ends up on-screen, it will not be what Bryan and I had envisioned or intended to make."

Animorphs is produced by Scholastic Entertainment and Picturestart as part of their effort to produce more live-action project based on Scholastic books. No casting details have been announced yet and the film has yet to receive a release date.
