New Line Cinema has bought the feature film rights for Susanna Clarke's best-selling fantasy novel 'Jonathan Strange & Mr Norrell'.

Clarke's debut novel, 'Jonathan Strange...' has become a publishing phenomenon and Top 10 bestseller in England.

It has been called a Harry Potter for adults and compared to 'The Lord of the Rings'.

New Line Cinema previously adapted 'The Lord of the Rings' into a nearly $3 billion grossing film franchise.

According to Variety, the studio is also reading Chris Weitz's first draft of 'The Golden Compass', the first book in Philip Pullman's 'His Dark Materials' trilogy, and searching for a writer for 'Inkheart', a fantasy franchise by German author Cornelia Funke.
