Jason Segel signs for second kids' book series

Actor-writer Jason Segel has scored a deal to write another scary series of young adult books. The 'Forgetting Sarah Marshall' star previously teamed up with author Kirsten Miller to co-write 'Nightmares!', which became a staple on The New York Times bestseller list, and now he's joining forces with Miller, as well as publishers at Delacorte Press, for a trilogy titled Otherworld, which centres around a teen gamer who disappears into virtual reality, said the Hollywood Reporter.

"Connecting with the readers of the 'Nightmares!' series at events has been a truly special experience for me, and I am incredibly excited to have the opportunity to keep writing stories for these readers, and to grow with them into young adults with Otherworld," Segel said in a statement. 'Nightmares!' was released last year and the final book in the trilogy arrives in September.
