Well guys...it looks like The Host is going to be made into a movie! The idea for the movie is in the works. Exciting, no?!  Very Happy

Here's the word from Stephenie's site:

September 23, 2009

Hey guys, great news! The Host is on its way to the big screen:

I'm so excited to be working with Nick Weschler, and Steve and Paula Mae Schwartz to bring The Host to a visual format. They've all been a dream to work with, so lovely and collaborative, and I feel like we're in a really good place to make a great movie together. And then to have Andrew Niccol writing and directing? Truly awesome. If you've never seen Gattaca, go watch it now. One of my favorite movies of all time. It's such a great example of character driven science fiction, which is ideal for The Host, no? I'm having an absolute blast imagining different dream casts, which I would post if people didn't take my silly blogs so seriously these days. I'm looking forward to seeing the cast lists you come up with in the fansite forums, and if any of them match mine.

So, very exciting. Yay Host!

XO
Steph

AND here's another link to check out.
Here's a preview of that page:

Andrew Niccol will write the script and direct.

Meyer’s novel is a love story set in the near future on Earth, which has been assimilated by an alien species that call themselves “Souls.”


check that out right here!


So.
Anyone else happy/excited to know that they're bringing The Host to the big screen?  Very Happy
What's y'all's opinion on it?
And because Stephenie is looking forward to it... what is y'all's dream cast?

I mean I am excited and will definitely watch the movie, but I never wanted it to be a movie. I loooove the book and I really wish it could have stayed a book. I just don't know how they could do a good job of making it since so much of it takes place in her head, you know??

That being said I can't change what's happening so I am going to start my dream cast picks soon. I'll post them once I have them.

I know what you mean!
I mean I am excited that they are going to make it into a movie and I am deffinantly going to see the movie (hahaha already planning on going to the midnight showing...when ever that'll be!) but i'm wondering how it's going to turn you. There's a lot of in-mind conversations and...i'm wondering how it's going to work.
I think they'll make it work. I'm curious.

I haven't picked my full cast yet but I have picked my Ian.
Ian Somerhalder for Ian O'Shea!
( i think that's how you spell Ian S.'s last name...haha)
Very Happy
