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

Variety.com: "Twilight's Meyer..."

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

Nah, they don't even have an official cast yet... I can't wait to find out! And I can't wait for the movie to be out!


Stephanie (Bookfever) (bookfever) So excited for the movie! :)


message 12: by Neki (new)

Neki Yeah!I hope they take Ian Somerhalder(Damon of Vampire Diaries)for Ian O'shea


Stephanie (Bookfever) (bookfever) I hope they take some people who aren't famous. I love Ian Somerhalder as Damon but if he would play Ian I would always think Omg it's Damon xD


message 14: by Neki (new)

Neki XDDD that's true!


Stephanie (Bookfever) (bookfever) Like he could start biting Wanda at any time xD


message 16: by Neki (new)

Neki Lolzzzzz


Stephanie (Bookfever) (bookfever) Yes, that's how my brain works xD haha


message 18: by Neki (new)

Neki Then you and I are in the same frequency!


Stephanie (Bookfever) (bookfever) Hahaha :D Good :p


message 20: by Katelyn (new)

Katelyn (katie_michelle) | 1 comments Hmm... Okay, so I'm really excited and nervous all at the same time about this book becoming a movie. I want all of the characters to be perfect. So, here are my picks..

Melanie/Wanda: Missy Peregrym (She's a bit older than Mel, but she's super close to how I pictured her.)

Pet/Wanda: I think that either Anna-Sophia Robb, Sammi Hanratty, or Taylor Momsen would be awesome as Wanda. They're all fairly close to Pet's age, and look like she was described in the book.

Jared: I know that they're kind of old, but then Jared was supposed to be older than Melanie, so I like Stephenie Meyer's choice of Matt Damon (he's amazing) and then I also thought Chris Pine would be good.

Ian: Ian, to me, has got to be PERFECT. I thought that Ben Hollingsworth, Matt Lanter, Brant Daugherty, or maybe even Chris Pine would fit the part.

So, yup, these are my picks. And I hope that when the movie is finally done, that they will have done a good job picking actors to match the characters.


Stephanie (Bookfever) (bookfever) Good picks, Katelyn!
btw, Ian has got to be perfect for me, too :D
I think everyone thinks that way :p


message 22: by Neki (new)

Neki Yeah,nice choices.

Though I only like Brant Daugherty of ur choices for Ian.

:DDDD


Stephanie (Bookfever) (bookfever) I have absolutely no clue who I would like for Ian.. seriously.. I can't even begin to think about it xD


message 24: by Neki (new)

Neki Don't even start thinking about starting to think who'd Ian be!.....I'm hyperventilating already!!!;p


Stephanie (Bookfever) (bookfever) Hahaha :D I know the feeling :p


message 26: by Neki (new)

Neki I'm practically rocking on my chair right now!!!


Stephanie (Bookfever) (bookfever) I so wanna know who the cast is gonna be! :o I'm already freaking out about other movies that come from books.. the host is going to be the end xD


message 28: by Neki (new)

Neki I didn't understand what you meant by 'Host is going to be the end'??


Stephanie (Bookfever) (bookfever) Yeah, just that I can't handle it anymore :p


message 30: by Neki (new)

Neki my patience is also waning.....


Stephanie (Bookfever) (bookfever) And the waiting for the sequel is also a bitch.. Ö


message 32: by Neki (new)

Neki XDXD
i fthey haven't started even casting it yet,it might not be finished even by 2013!!!!


Stephanie (Bookfever) (bookfever) haha :') in 2013 the last Mortal Instruments book is coming out. If I have to wait till 2013 I'm going to die xD


message 34: by Neki (new)

Neki if the 2012 world's end is true,we'd die before we have to wait that long!Kinda relief!


Stephanie (Bookfever) (bookfever) True, but then I'm going to miss that last MI book :( nooooo.. xD


message 36: by Neki (new)

Neki And we both gonna miss the next 2 sequels of Host!!!:O:O:O I really and desperatly hope 2012 world's end never happens


Stephanie (Bookfever) (bookfever) I really really want the sequels! Me too, 2012 kind of freaks me out.


message 38: by Neki (new)

Neki I wish Stephanie Meyer will hurry up and finish those 2!Then at least we can wait for the movie (w/o panicking) while reading the book ;D


Stephanie (Bookfever) (bookfever) i've been dying for some new Ian moments ^^


message 40: by Neki (new)

Neki Ian and Wanda!!*sigh*
At the middle parts of the book,i don't understand why Wanda couldn't see that Ian really likes her!Even though I love the parts where Melanie tries to tell her how Ian feels about her


Stephanie (Bookfever) (bookfever) Me too. Melanie noticed right away :p Poor Mel, actually xD


message 42: by Neki (new)

Neki it was kinda fun AND annoying when she protest to Ian!! Still I also wouldn't like it if I was Melanie


Stephanie (Bookfever) (bookfever) Oh, I loved the bonus chapter sooooo :D


message 44: by Neki (new)

Neki yeah!!!!!!!!!!I loved part where Ian instantly recognizes that it was not Wanda!


Stephanie (Bookfever) (bookfever) uh-huuuuh :D It made me love Ian even more ^^


message 46: by Neki (new)

Neki Ian! *sigh happily*


Stephanie (Bookfever) (bookfever) In total since I read The Host for the first time I had 2 The Host dreams and in both Ian was there!! :D
