The writer James Dashner has already sold the rights to film his works to see firsthand what will come of it…

We continue to follow the news.
Plot
Thomas has been with the organization for a long time. But one day he realized that he was doing irreparable things to people, and decided to give up his post. He went against the system, and then the leadership of the organization erased his memory. He was placed in a labyrinth, which he previously had only to watch.
Once there, he met teenagers like him, whose lives were in danger every day. All of them were in a labyrinth, the entrances and exits of which were constantly changing. Outside the gates, monsters were waiting for them, which it was impossible to defeat with hands, without weapons. With the advent of Thomas in the world of adolescents, constant quarrels and deprivations began.
Some even began to say that Thomas was sent to them for a reason. At this time, a girl appeared, in whose hand was a note stating that she would be the last one to come to the maze. Her name was Teresa and she was very sympathetic to Thomas. It later turned out that Thomas worked with her, but they both became traitors, who were deprived of their memory and sent to the test subjects.
During the first 3 parts, the story was told of how Thomas, along with Teresa and the rest of the participants in the experiment, were able to get out of the labyrinth and defeat many people who got in their way. But there were also hardships, because during this time Thomas lost his best friend and beloved girl, who decided to atone for her own sins by suicide.
The prequel will tell about the events that took place long before the events of the 1st part of the movie “The Maze Runner”. Thomas will no longer become the main face of the film – only his predecessors will decide the fate. A man-made disaster, the idea of creating a maze and so on – the viewer will reveal dozens of secrets that tormented from the very beginning!..

Interesting Facts
- Delacorte Press, which publishes books from the series “The Maze Runner”, requires the producers of the project to comply with the privacy policy. This reason is crucial when it comes to discussing a movie’s release date.
- Patricia Clarkson received a double fee for the second part of the film, as she did not want to take part in it anymore. But Kaya Scodelario without persuasion decided to become the star of the film again, while the amount of her income also increased.
- Becoming the main face of the film, Dylan O’Brien never achieved stunning fame, as is the case with the release of such projects. But he doesn’t need it, because all his life he wanted to become a musician. His band “Slow Kids At Play” is popular in America, and Dylan doesn’t have to film more than 2 times a year, since he earns income from his concerts.
- Thomas Brodie-Sangster once admitted in an interview for the BBC that he does not need a lot of money to support himself. This is true. The Briton was easily limited by the fee from the 3rd part of the movie “The Maze Runner”. The projects “Dragon Rider” and “Mouse Guard”, in which he took part, will be released soon.
