Survivor - based on a novel from Fight Club's Chuck Palahniuk - is heading to the small screen. We've got all the info here...
Chuck Palahniuk is best known for writing Fight Club, the novel that morphed into a Brad Pitt/Ed Norton starring movie and earned legendary status among cult film fans along the way. Now, two more adaptations of Palahniuk novels are on the way.
For one, Palahniuk's 1999 novel Survivor is heading to the small screen. The author broke the news himself, writing on Reddit that "Survivor is in development as a television series. Jim Uhls, the screenwriter of Fight Club is writing the first season. That is all I am allowed to tell you." We're waiting to hear details about which network/studio is behind this project.
If you're unfamiliar with the novel, here's a synopsis for Survivor, courtesy of Good Reads...

Chuck Palahniuk´s Lullaby is poised to become his latest work to hit the big screen with a crowd-funding campaign eyeing to raise at least $250 000 to see the world´s unlikeliest serial killer on the screen. Lullaby - written to help the author to cope with the tragic death of his father - was published between medically-laden sex addict satire Choke and confession of the “desperate” artist in Diary. All the way back in 2008, Palahniuk revealed Swedish director Rolf Johansson was set to adapt Lullaby which should have hit screens in 2010. Film productions are notoriously whimsical so it is no surprise that Johansson is no longer helming the project.

Though it has been planned for years, author Chuck Palahniuk has now taken to Kickstarter to launch a crowdfunding campaign for a film adaptation of his 2002 novel "Lullaby".
Palahniuk, director Andy Mingo, and producer Josh Leake have kicked off the effort which will mark the "Fight Club" and "Choke" author's first-ever screenwriting credit. The story itself deals with a 'culling song' that deals a painless death to anyone it's recited or even thought at. It was penned as a reaction to the trial of his father's murderer.
Kicking off the other day, the group are seeking $250,000 with $90,400 of that already achieved. The group says: "Both director Andy Mingo and producer Josh Leake have enough talented friends, family and colleagues that at this amount, the film can be made on a bootstrap budget."...

Though he wrote the novel on which David Fincher’s 1999 hit Fight Club was adapted, novelist Chuck Palahniuk has never written a screenplay. That will change with the upcoming film adaptation of the author’s 2002 novel Lullaby. Palahniuk will executive produce and co-write the screenplay with director Andy Mingo.
