Ronald D. Moore, one of the developers of the Hulu adaptation of A Court of Thorns and Roses, has provided an update on the show's progress.

A Court of Thorn and Roses' Development Timeline
The project is currently in the development stage. We have already completed several scripts, and now we are patiently waiting for the involvement of actors. The entire town is eagerly anticipating this crucial step before the project can progress further.
Originally published in 2015, A Court of Thorns and Roses quickly became a New York Times Bestseller. The success of the novel led to the release of four more books, with the most recent one being A Court of Silver Flames in 2021. In March 2021, the announcement of a TV adaptation for A Court of Thorns and Roses followed the release of the fifth novel.
Moore's involvement in the project has been consistent since its initial announcement. This was seen as a positive development considering his work on the popular fantasy TV series Outlander. However, there have not been any significant updates on the progress of A Court of Thorns and Roses. No casting decisions or additional story details have been disclosed by Hulu.
Although this lack of progress may have raised doubts about the future of A Court of Thorns and Roses, Moore's recent comments provide some hope for the fantasy series. As there is no forward momentum without actors, it is likely that it will be several more years before the show is ready for the small screen. Hopefully, audiences will finally get to see the adaptation after this remarkably long wait.
