It looks like we could soon see a big-screen adaptation of Scott Westerfeld’s Uglies series.
MTV reports that Screen Gems is developing & fast-tracking a film version of Uglies!
While there haven’t been any decisions made regarding things like casting yet, we can tell you that our source said production of the movie is planned for later this year. That means we will all hopefully know soon enough who could be playing the beloved teen Tally Youngblood in the futuristic, meaningful tale about a dystopian society that places an incredible emphasis on looks.
Hurray!
You can follow all the latest on the Uglies movie development on Westerfeld’s blog. We’ll keep you updated here at Novel Novice, too!
For the comments: Who would you cast as some of the major roles in an Uglies movie? Tell us your ideas!

I have my fantasy cast up on http://www.storycasting.com. A few other people do too, its lots of fun. Emily Browning is a favoured choice for Tally
I’d love to see this made into a movie.
