Miley Cyrus: Time to "Wake"
Increasingly proving that she's ready to move beyond the confines of her Disney-established image (and we're not just talking sexual energy), Miley Cyrus is making her first film outside of the Mouse House: an adaptation of Lisa McMann's Y/A novel, Wake.
To be produced by Paramount Pictures and MTV Films, the script (the final results of which will determine whether or not Miley stars) is being written by Disturbia co-writer Christopher Landon.
Offers The Hollywood Reporter, "Wake is the first of three novels written by McMann about a 17-year-old girl named Janie with the unwanted ability to become sucked into people’s dreams. Not surprisingly, she sees things she would rather not see. But when she gets pulled into a terrible nightmare, Janie dangerously goes from mere witness to participant. The edgy sequels, Fade and Gone, detail her investigations with boyfriend Cabel into the perverse activities of teachers at their school and the difficult fate that lies ahead for her.
"Paramount and MTV Films are grabbing rights to the entire series — all of which have been New York Times best-sellers — with the desire to spark a franchise."
