Selectioners around the world, rejoice! You are now one step closer to seeing America and Maxon on the big screen in The Selection movie!
Variety reported that a movie adaption of The Selection by Kiera Cass officially has director, which in YA movie world means that this movie might actually happen now!
Thea Sharrock is attached to the project to direct. You might know her because she also directed this summer’s hottest tear-jerker, Me Before You starring Emilia Clarke and Sam Claflin.
Check out the response from Kiera Cass to the director news!
So, what does adding a director mean for the #SelectionMovie? It means we're one step closer. And I'm happy with the choice…
