Philip K. Dick’s paranoid novels have spawned a ton of action movies, from Blade Runner to Paycheck, but they’ve only recently started to be seen as fodder for art films like Scanner Darkly. And now one of Dick’s weirdest books, Ubik, has just been optioned by Celluloid Dreams, a European company better known for producing or distributing movies like Son Of Rambow, Persepolis and I’m Not There. Dick’s daughter, Isa Dick-Hackett, will co-produce the movie and says that Celluloid Dreams’ vision is close to her own. [i09]
