Have you noticed how the novels of Nicholas Sparks are being used to launch some actors into ‘bankability’?
There’s The Notebook, Message in a Bottle, A Walk to Remember, Nights in Rodanthe, Dear John and The Last Song. There are more Sparks novels worthy of being translated into the big screen but I am sure studios are already studying which one they’ll get.
Dear John starred Amanda Seyfried while The Last Song had Miley Cyrus. Both movies did well in the box office. Now comes the latest in the Sparks collection… The Lucky One. There are reports saying that Zac Efron is in talks of starring in the movie adaptation.
Hmm… sounds promising if Zac’s there. What do you think?
