THERE IS GOING TO BE A MOVIE FOR THE SELECTION!!!!
I had a major freakout when I heard about this! There isn't a date set for when it is going to come out, but heres what is decided.
1) Warner Bro's won the rights to it
2) Katie Lovejoy, a somewhat novice screenwriter, will be writing the script
3) Denise DeNovi, Alison Greenspan, and Pouya Shahbazian are producing it.
Previously, Warner Bro's tried to make a TV movie of the Selection in 2012 and 2013, but both times it didn't go through. Hopefully, this time it'll work! Although, I did watch a clip of the TV movie, and it looked pretty terrible. Maxon was portrayed as a drunken jerk, and Aspen and America were both blondes. I think the only character they got right was Queen Amberly.
So, on to who should play who. I'm not very good at this so bear with me.
America: Aimee Teegarden (although she already was cast in the 2012 pilot and dropped it soooo)
Holland Roden would also be good
Kriss: Catilin Stasey
Maxon: Freddie Stroma
Celeste: Hilary Duff
But I really don't know for Aspen or the other characters! I'll keep thinking and get back to this. Anyway, I hope you're as excited as I am!!!
