Let’s dive into the world of movie adaptations!

In this quiz, we’re not discussing whether the book was better than the movie or not. We are guessing whether there was a book in the first place. Apart from the famous movies that are adapted from books, such as Pride and Prejudice, there are countless other book-to-movie adaptations. Guess whether the movies in this quiz started their careers as books or were born onto the screens as originals. Some of the movies will surely surprise you.

Grab your popcorn, and let’s begin!

    Hi, I’m a writer here at Bored Panda. When I’m not writing, you can find me reading books, binge-watching TV shows, making pottery and jewelry, or cooking. I love good food and good company. I also love my dog and cat who bring me so much joy every day.

    Question 2 isn't right. Die Hard was based on the book Nothing Lasts Forever.

    Donnie Darko is not based on a book, Richard Kelly who wrote the screenplay put the screenplay into a book.

    The Wicker Man is not based on a book, but a book was written subsequently.
