The phrase "Turtles all the way down" is an expression of the problem of infinite regress. The saying alludes to the mythological idea of a World Turtle that supports a flat Earth on its back. It suggests that this turtle rests on the back of an even larger turtle, which itself is part of a column of increasingly large turtles that continues indefinitely.
In December 2017, Green announced that a film adaptation was in development. It was optioned by Fox 2000 and would be produced by Temple Hill Productions, the same team that made The Fault in Our Stars and Paper Towns adaptations. In May 2018, Green confirmed that Isaac Aptaker and Elizabeth Berger, the co-showrunners of the NBC series This Is Us and the screenwriters of Love, Simon, would be adapting the novel. Actress Hannah Marks was named as the film's director in January 2019. After Fox 2000 was closed as part of the acquisition of 21st Century Fox by Disney, the film was put on hold. In March 2022, it was announced the film had switched studios to New Line Cinema and would be released on the streaming service HBO Max. The film is set to star Isabela Merced and begin filming in April 2022. Green and Rosianna Halse Rojas will serve as executive producers.
Isabela Merced previously starred in another John Green adaptation, Let It Snow (2019).
John Green is open about his struggles with Anxiety and Obsessive Compulsive Disorder. He's said that his doesn't manifest itself the same as Aza's but he does have thought spirals. He had a particularly bad period for a few months after writing The Fault In Our Stars.
Aza's mom singing to her "We're here because we're here because we're here because we're here..." is referencing a story told by John Green in The Anthropecene Reviewed about soldiers in WWI singing in the trenches about the futility war. "By Christmas of 1916, soldiers didn't want truces--the devastating losses of the war, and the growing use of poison gas, had embittered the combatants. But many also had no idea why they were fighting and dying for tiny patches of ground so far from home. And in the British trenches, soldiers began to sing the tune of Auld Lang Syne with different words: We're here because we're here because we're here because we're here. Here was a world without whys, where life was meaninglessness all the way down."
