EXCLUSIVE: Amazon and German production and distribution force Constantin Film are teaming up on YA fantasy feature Silver (working title), based on the popular novel series of the same name by Kerstin Gier.

Silver will chart the story of 17-year-old Liv who moves to London with her mother Ann and little sister Mia. When Liv meets the mysterious Henry, everything changes.

Helena Hufnagel will direct. Producer is Lena Shömann. Screenplay comes from Sina Flammang in collaboration with Christian Ditter.

The movie (which has franchise potential given its source material) will be filmed shortly in London and Dublin in German and English. The Prime Video launch is slated for 2023.
