As You Wish Cary Elwes Cover Banner

As You Wish: Inconceivable Tales From the Making of the Princess Bride
Hardcover | Kindle Edition | Audiobook
Written by Cary Elwes with Joe Layden
Forward by Rob Reiner
Simon & Schuster/Touchstone Books
Release Date: October 14, 2014

This is a fan book — a book from a fan to the fans. Actor Cary Elwes is the ultimate Princess Bride fan. His book, As You Wish: Inconceivable Tales From the Making of the Princess Bride, written with some help from Joe Layden, and including a forward from director Rob Reiner, tells the tale of this fairytale, as a fairytale. This is not a negative criticism. It comes from a magical place. Elwes, who starred in the film, gushes about that experience from the first page to the last, and the rest of the cast, Reiner, Andy Scheinmen, Norman Lear, and William Goldsmith, author of the book and screenplay, contribute many first-person accounts of their experiences, echoing Cary’s sentiments. The Princess Bride was the first major acting job of Elwes’s career, and the one that he will be remembered for, for the rest of his life and beyond.

The Princess Bride

Disney Theatrical Productions is teaming up with William Goldman to bring beloved fairy tale The Princess Bride to the stage.

Disney will work with Goldman to adapt The Princess Bride—from both his 1973 original book and his screenplay for the 1987 classic movie of the same name—and it’s not yet clear whether the final product will be a musical or a play.

The deal was put together by Walt Disney Studios chairman Alan Horn, who was involved with the movie adaptation while he was at Castle Rock Entertainment.

The Princess Bride Image

Two of my favorite things in the whole wide world, joined together as one.

This new video takes the grandfather and grandson part of the timeless fairy tale classic, The Princess Bride, but instead of the grandfather (played by Peter Falk) reading The Princess Bride to his grandson (played by Fred Savage), he instead reads him book one in George R.R. Martin’s “A Song of Ice and Fire” book series, A Game of Thrones, accompanied of course by footage from the HBO series.

The results are quite enjoyable, and you can check out the video below. Be warned, however, that the video contains major spoilers if you’ve not read book one or seen season one of HBO’s series.
