===Adaptations=== In addition to the film, ''Fight Club'' was adapted into a [[Fight Club (video game)|fighting video game]] loosely based on the film, which was released in October 2004, receiving universally poor reviews.<ref>{{cite web |url= http://gamerankings.com/htmlpages2/919413.asp?q=fight%20club |title=Fight Club |publisher= | website= GameRankings.com |date= November 16, 2004 |access-date= December 4, 2013 |archive-url= https://web.archive.org/web/20060101173831/http://www.gamerankings.com/htmlpages2/919413.asp?q=fight%20club |archive-date=January 1, 2006 |url-status=dead }}</ref> Palahniuk has mentioned at book readings that he is working on a musical based on ''Fight Club'' with David Fincher and [[Trent Reznor]].<ref>{{cite news| last= Chang | first= Jade | url= https://www.bbc.co.uk/dna/collective/A2799633 | title= Tinseltown: Fight Club and Fahrenheit| archiveurl= https://web.archive.org/web/20150610183132/http://www.bbc.co.uk/dna/collective/A2799633 |archivedate=June 10, 2015 | website= [[BBC]].co.uk| date= July 2, 2004}}</ref> [[Edward Norton]] has said that he thinks it is unlikely that he and [[Brad Pitt]], who "can't sing," would reprise their film roles in a musical.<ref>{{cite web |title= The Scoop: Elisabeth Hasselbeck invited to Palin rallies/Plus: Ed Norton disses Brad Pitt's singing; Katie Holmes no ratings winner|url= https://www.today.com/popculture/elisabeth-hasselbeck-invited-palin-rallies-wbna27329218|date= October 23, 2008|work= [[Today.com]]|access-date=July 9, 2009}}</ref> Graphic novel adaptations of ''Invisible Monsters'' and ''Lullaby'', drawn by comic artist Kissgz, a.k.a.

The film rights to ''Survivor'' were sold in early 2001, but no [[movie studio]] had committed to filming the novel. After the [[September 11 attacks|attacks on the Pentagon and World Trade Center on September 11, 2001]], movie studios apparently deemed the novel too controversial to film because it includes the hijacking and crashing of a civilian airplane.<ref>''Postcards from the Future: The Chuck Palahniuk Documentary''.
