The Enchanted Tree, an adaptation of Enid Blyton's beloved The Faraway Tree book series, stars Andrew Garfield, Claire Foy, and Nonso Anozie. The project was first proposed in 2014 by Hachette and is now being developed by several production companies, including Elysian Film Group and Neal Street Productions. Directed by Ben Gregor and written by Simon Farnaby, the film has not yet announced a release date in France. Blyton's original books were translated into French by Jeanne Bazin and others for the Pink Library collection, which has been popular among young readers.
