The highly acclaimed best seller by John Green, The Fault in our Stars, is becoming a movie! If you are not familiar with this heart felt novel, you must read it. Here is a little background. The story is about a terminally ill cancer patient named Hazel Grace. She had a medical miracle which gave her a few more years to live. Her life changes when she attends a cancer support group and meets the charming Augustus Waters. The tale is about her view on life, their experiences together, their struggles, good times, and their love. The movie is set to be in theaters
The movie rights were optioned to Fox and the decided director is Josh Boone. The producers are Wyck Godfrey and Marty Bowen, who are behind The Twilight Saga and Safe Haven. The newest addition to the movie cast is Shailene Woodley playing the main character, Hazel Grace Lancaster. No other characters have been casted, but there is speculation on who will play the charming Augustus Walters. There many famous actors, but many people tend to think that it will probably be Logan Lerman, Liam Hemsworth, Dylan O’Brian, Avan Jogia, or Josh Peck. Who do you think with play Augustus Waters?
There are mixed opinions out there about the production of the movie. Many of the lovers of The Fault in Our Stars are afraid that the movie won’t do the book justice, and that they will change the plot and meaning too much. They also believe that it will ruin the personal connections between the book and the readers when it is created into media. While on the other hand, people think that the movie will be as good as the book. They think that the book is cohesive enough to become a great movie and will portray the themes from the book greatly. In my opinion, I would like to see them produce a good representation of the book, but I don’t think that the movie will ever be as good as the book. What do you think about The Fault in Our Stars being made into a movie?
