You've been placed in charge of a movie studio, and have an unlimited budget to adapt any work of your choosing that has never been made into a live-action TV series or film. What are you picking?

I want to add stronger electrolytes to my diet (mine are only 300mg of salt for example) but I’m afraid of consuming the LMNT packets that literally have 1000mg of salt in them bc damn that’s so much salt. On the other hand, blood doesn’t get to my brain when I stand up
