The book "Er ist Wieder Da" has become a
surprise success since it was published last year, selling more
than 1.3 million printed and electronic copies despite fact that
it deals with a touchy subject for many Germans.
In the book the Nazi leader awakens in modern-day Berlin and
becomes the star of a TV comedy show.
An English-language version is to be released in April under the
title "Look Who's Back."
Munich-based Constantin Film said Tuesday it plans to produce a
movie based on the book to be released in 2015. The script will
be written by the book's author, Timur Vermes.
