In the past the heroes of the lance were the most famous D&D characters, even more than Elminster or Drizzt D'ourden. But the setting is not enough flexible for PCs who aren't heroes of the lance.A remake of the modules? Totally possible.If a no-Forgotten Realms D&D videogame is possible, the options are Dragonlance, Ravenloft and Planescape. But we are talking about a AAA that needs a lot of time and money. This is not an Assasin's Creed every year.The movie studios, Paramount, Netflix, Warner and Disney would fight to can adapt the Dragonlance saga, a potential cash-cow, but here the mistakes are too expensive. The action-live movies need time and the actors get old too fast, or something happens and a recast is necessary. Castlevania is a good example of Western animation for adults can work and not only for comedies but also fantasy action. Of course those can produce their own fantasy movies starting from zero and with total control and creative freedom, but today a known brand helps. Hasbro/WotC has to choose wisely any new partnership deal.The erasure of the previous canon of Dragonlance can be very dangerous because this may be not wellcome by the fandom. An option is a "fake-crossover", for example a group of teenages go to a casting for a future game-live show but the producer really if a archfey ruling her own delight domain. The "chosen champions" are abducted and sent of a "fake Krynn" where they will live adventures like a rip-off of the heroes of the lance. (it would be very fun Laurana with voice of <a href="https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/Telenovela" target="_blank">telenovela (Latino soap-opera)</a> screaming Kitiara: "Get away from my man, viper!"). The original lore wouldn't be altered at all. Comedy and epic fantasy (and some touchs of romance), perfect even for the audience who knows nothing about the books. WotC created Theros because classic mythologies are public domain, and everybody can publish their own version.</blockquote>
