The first screenplay based on "Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep?" was not written by Hampton Fancher as is often claimed, but by Robert Jaffe, whose company, Herb Jaffe Associates, had purchased the rights to the novel. According to author Philip K. Dick, Jaffe turned the novel into a comedy spoof, which Dick absolutely detested. Herb Jaffe Associates' option ran out in 1977, which is when Fancher became involved. Fancher had wanted to do an adaptation of William S. Burroughs' "Naked Lunch", but the deal fell through, and he turned to "Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep?"
