'THE SELECTION' BESTSELLER

TO GET A MOVIE ADAPTATION Now, this one was supposed to be adapted twice into a TV series but it never got beyond the pilot stage: now, 'Deadline' reports that Kiera Cass' bestselling YA fantasy novel THE SELECTION (the first in the five book series) is going to be adapted into a movie after Warner Bros. has bought the rights.  It follows 35 underprivileged girls who are chosen to compete to live in a life of luxury if they marry the prince. The protagonist, America Singer, is sweet on a young man from her district, but when she’s exposed to the opulence of a royal life, she’s conflicted, even though a rebel uprising threatens the pampered.
