His Dark Materials was first adzpted as a radioplay for the BBC Four in 2003 with Terence Stamp voicing Lord Asriel.

     The trilogy was also adapted as a stageplay as a 2-part, six-hour long play which first ran in 2004 at the National Theater in London with Anna Maxwell Martin and Dominic Cooper as Lyra and Will, but also Timothy Dalton (a former James Bond) and then David Harewood as Asriel.

     Since 2014, the trilogy is also being adapted into graphic novels by the French publisher Gallimard, the books being adapted by Stephane Melchior and drawn by Clément Oubrerie (for the 3 instalments of Northern Lights/ Les Royaumes du Nord) or Thomas Gilbert (for the three instalments of The Subtle Knife/La Tour des Anges, the final part being expected early 2021 in France). The albums based on Northern Lights have already been translated and published in many countries while those based on The Subtle Knife are already available in various European countries and in North America.

     La Belle Sauvage was also adapted as a stageplay, which ran at the Bridge Theater in London from late 2021 to early 2022, adapted by Bryony Lavery and directed by Nicholas Hynter, the director from the His Dark Materials' original stageplay run.
