Artemis Fowl may not be familiar to many, but I like because I read these with my kids when they were young.
Artemis Fowl is a kid genius in a criminal family, becomes aware of the well hidden work of faeries and leprechauns and wants to take it over for criminal purposes.
It has similarities to Harry Potter world and is a lot of fun.

The film was made, directed by Branagh, and will be streamed in Disney (too bad for me, I don't get that) instead of coming out in theaters. Date on yet clear.
The trailer seems different from what I recall as having read.
Here is an ABC news article in it.

But I still prefer the books.I agree, the Artemis Fowl books were a big part of my childhood and I have fond memories of reading them with my family. I am also curious to see how the film adaptation turns out, but I am a bit disappointed that it will only be available on Disney+ instead of in theaters. I hope they do justice to the characters and the unique world that Eoin Colfer created. While the trailer does look different from the books, I am still excited to see it. But like you, I will always prefer the books.
