Alcon Publishing, the book unit of the production entity behind films and series like Blade Runner: 2049<\/em> and The Expanse<\/em>, is expanding its relationship with Titan Books.<\/p>\n

Starting in 2023, the two companies plan to commission original fiction across several genres. Titan Books will publish the titles and Penguin Random House will distribute in North America.<\/p>\n

Alcon Publishing, led by the company’s director of publishing, Jeff Conner, launched an existing co-venture with Titan in 2018, leading to comics, graphic novels and art books based on specific Alcon properties.<\/p>\n

Under the expanded agreement, four new original titles are currently in the works. The first novel slated for release next March is Suborbital 7<\/i> by John Shirley, a book the companies describe as “a military techno thriller.” Plans call for two to three novels a year from the collaboration, and Titan and Alcon plan to reveal additional details soon about those projects.<\/p>\n

“We’ve built a great working relationship with Titan over the past four years,” Conner said. “And Titan is just as active in literature, publishing a robust mix of licensed and original books across multiple genres. This lines up perfectly with Alcon’s own plans for creating original fiction.”<\/p>\n

Titan Co-CEOs Nick Landau and Vivian Cheung said the aim to to take the “dynamic partnership into the broader landscape of prose publishing, working on a worldwide basis with some of the genre’s most exciting authors.”<\/p>\n

Alcon Entertainment Co-CEOs Broderick Johnson and Andrew Kosove, who co-founded the company along with former FedEx CEO Fred Smith, said the company has long nurtured ambitions to have a stake in original fiction. “As a company that is deeply invested in the business of storytelling in all its forms, we welcome this opportunity to forge new creative relationships,” they said.<\/p>\n

Since launching in 1997, Alcon has financed and produced or co-financed and co-produced 34 films to date, including The Blind Side,<\/i> <\/span>Blade Runner 2049<\/i> and The Book of Eli<\/span><\/i>. U<\/span>pcoming projects include an animated film adaptation of the Garfield<\/i> cartoon strip, with Chris Pratt voicing Garfield and Samuel Jackson voicing a new character, Vic, who is Garfield’s father.<\/p>\n

Alcon’s TV operation, which launched in 2015, has produced The Expanse as well as animated children’s series Pete the Cat<\/i>, <\/i>a co-production with Amazon Studios based on the best-selling children’s book series. Alcon Television recently announced live action series Blade Runner 2099 <\/i>with Amazon Prime Video.<\/p>\n

Titan Books, a division of Titan Publishing Group, operates in media entertainment fiction, non-fiction, and lifestyle publishing, but has garnered a reputation for bestselling original genre fiction titles. On the entertainment and culture non-fiction front, the company has worked with not only Alcon, but Netflix, Marvel and major franchises like Star Trek<\/em> and Alien<\/em>.<\/p>\n
