Book to Movie News

After searching the web for news about movies about YA books I found a few things that perhaps you are not aware.  These are not recent news but somehow I had missed them.  Hope you all enjoy.

Firelight by Sophie Jordan

In 2010 Mandalay pictures purchased the movie rights of this amazing YA series.  I tried to find an update but Mandalay has not posted any recent news.  Well have to stay tuned to find out more about this big screen adaption.

Synopsis

The story follows twin teenage sisters, the descendants of dragons who live in secret with their endangered pride. When their mother learns that the pride has a dark plan for one of the girls who possesses the rare talent of fire breathing, she spirits the twins away to live a normal life among humans.

 Incarceron By: Catherine Fisher

   

If you’re a Taylor Lautner fan you may want to stay tuned to this upcoming movie.  He is reported to to star in the movie adaptation of Incarceron by Catherine Fisher. The movie is due to come out sometime in 2013. 

Synopsis

Imagine a living prison so vast that it contains corridors and forests, cities and seas. Imagine a prisoner with no memory, who is sure he came from Outside, even though the prison has been sealed for centuries and only one man, half real, half legend, has ever escaped.

Imagine a girl in a manor house in a society where time has been forbidden, where everyone is held in a seventeenth century world run by computers, doomed to an arranged marriage that appals her, tangled in an assassination plot she both dreads and desires.

One inside, one outside But both imprisoned. Imagine a war that has hollowed the moon, seven skullrings that contain souls, a flying ship and a wall at the world's end. Imagine the unimaginable.

Imagine Incarceron.

Gone by: Lisa McMann

  

Many rumors were linking Miley Cirus to this role but unfortunately they are not certain.  The rights were purchased by MTV Films which is based on the novel Wake by Lisa McMann. Be sure to check out the sequels available at the library, Fade and Gone. McMann also has a new novel coming out in February called Cryer’s Cross.

  

Synopsis

For seventeen-year-old Janie, getting sucked into other people's dreams is getting old. Especially the falling dreams, the naked-but-nobody-notices dreams, and the sex-crazed dreams. Janie's seen enough fantasy booty to last her a lifetime.

She can't tell anybody about what she does -- they'd never believe her, or worse, they'd think she's a freak. So Janie lives on the fringe, cursed with an ability she doesn't want and can't control.

Then she falls into a gruesome nightmare, one that chills her to the bone. For the first time, Janie is more than a witness to someone else's twisted psyche. She is a participant...

Well stay tuned for more...
