Favourite Books to feature films!! Part 1

Some of our favourite literary works are being turned in to major Hollywood productions. Slated for release in 2008 and 2009, these are a few movies to look out for!

1. Twilight - Written by Stephanie Meyer
Twilight tells the story of Isabella (Bella) Swan who moves to Forks, Washington. She finds herself attracted to the mysterious Edward Cullen, later making the startling discovery that Edward is in fact a vampire. Dating Edward does have its drawbacks and Bella finds her life in danger when a vampire coven sweeps into town.

Twilight spawned two other successful continuations New Moon, Eclipse and the soon to be released and final Novel in the series Breaking Dawn.

The movie will star Kristen Stewart (In the land of women, Into the Wild) as Bella Swan, Robert Pattinson (Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire) as Vampire heartthrob Edward Cullen, and directed by Catherine Hardwicke (Thirteen).
Twilight is currently scheduled for a December 12, 2008 release

He visits her many times over the years, at different ages, while she is growing up. They then meet in 1991, after many years apart Clare is 20 and real time Henry is 28. They marry, and both come to grips with Henry’s rare disorder, what follows is a touching, mesmerizing love story.


The movie will star Eric Bana (Munich, Troy) as time travelling Henry De Tamble and Rachel McAdams (Mean Girls, The Notebook) as Clare Abshire and directed by Robert Schwentke (Flightplan).

Hmmm...maybe I should write a book as well. Maybe, they will make a movie out of it staring Brat Pitt and Anglina Jolin

By the way Bianca, you still haven't tell me whether that pretty girl in your posting pic is you.

Is it?
