Author Comala Remogene eyes big screen with first novel
Jamaican born author Comala Remogene

Author Comala Remogene eyes big screen with first novel

Jamaican born author Comala Remogene is currently making preparations to bring her debut novel—Call Her Majesty— to screens through a multi-part series that will be set on the island and in the United States.

“The book is currently being adapted into a 13-episode series for a major streaming platform. The series is in pre-production right now to start filming sometime this year. We are in partnership with a few production companies in the United States and Jamaica. The director is Johann Dawes from Hype TV (and there is also) the Production Hub, AC Studios New York, Chris Browne and others,” the Florida-based author told Observer Online.

Remogene is also a real estate agent, and owner of Comala’s Boutique located in Florida. She got her big break in the television industry as executive producer for Fashion Village, Fashion Frenzie and later Rip the Runway, a yearly event in Miami.

Noting that she was encouraged by Dawes to pursue the series based on the book that was officially published in September 2023, Remogene added that the script is also well underway. The project will feature familiar faces from the highly successful Bob Marley: One Love biopic.

“We have six chapters already printed out (and) ready to go. We have a few sponsors and over US$50,000 ready and we’re getting the actors ready. I’m working with Johann, as I said, and the Production Hub and he is getting the actors and actresses from the Bob Marley movie to be in it,” the author who gained her Bachelor’s in Marketing and Communication from the Broward Community College said.

Call Her Majesty is a thriller that sees the protagonist, Majesty, being conflicted about avenging her parents’ death. She then meets another character called Arthur who is a kingpin and they both contend with the ebbs and flows of a risky lifestyle as they mimic a modern-day Bonnie and Clyde.

With only positive feedback so far for her first book, Remogene is encouraging budding professionals to see their dreams through.

“You just have to keep on moving. Whatever you aspire to do, just keep going. You have to believe it first, and once you believe it and you put it out first, you are going to get it done,” she said.
