Are there any plans to support graphql APIs.

We all know the direction towards graphql lately, it would be great if we can have that at themoviesdb, without the need to wrap REST with graphql

Hi @yassinebridi,
I would love to work on a new version of the API that is GraphQL based. Unfortunately, as the only person who works on TMDb, I don't have any time to think about doing this. There's about 1000 things more important for me to work on right now. If this ever changes I'll let you know.

Hi @travisbell :)
Would it be possible for someone else to write the GraphQL Schema for you? As far as i know, all you need is the Database Structure. With just that, it should be pretty easy and fast to integrate GraphQL.
GraphQL would be especially helpfull for the TMDb API, as people would only need a single request to get all the data they need :)

@travisbell @CubE135 I would also love to see this and can lend a hand writing docs or testing if need be!
