What are your thoughts on this casting news?
Twilight Saga‘s Taylor Lautner has become attached to star in Incarceron, the Fox 2000 adaptation of the Catherine Fisher young adult novel. The film is being written by Adam Cooper & Bill Collage, who are among the writers behind the Brett Ratner-directed Universal comedy Tower Heist, and who are writing Moby Dick for Timur Bekmambetov and Moses for Fox and Peter Chernin.
“INCARCERON is no simple fantasy. The unexpected twists and turns of a rich mystery and awe-worthy world-building are layered with a dystopian theme of a paradise gone awry, leaving the reader to ponder which imprisonment is worse. Whether evil is a product of man, a product of the world, or simply a product of Incarceron itself. Because the deeper Finn and Claudia are pulled into the web of secrets surrounding them, the more they realize Incarceron has a life — and a mind — of its own . . .
Fantasy lover or not, INCARCERON will draw you in and keep you reading. The ending satisfied but left enough open questions that I quickly searched for a sequel. Thankfully, it appears SAPPHIQUE is set to drop this December.”
A new review from TeenReads.com has spectacular things to say about Incarceron!
“The idea of putting the world’s criminals, terrorists and murderers into a self-sustaining prison is both alluring and intriguing. Not only would it potentially rid the world of immediate danger, it would also place the prisoners in a supernatural environment that appears free from the restrictions of a cell. Author Catherine Fisher takes this theory and runs with it. She has the difficult task of creating two completely opposite worlds and melding them into one storyline — and ultimately succeeds on every level. Fantasy-lovers will be drawn into the worlds of INCARCERON and will not be disappointed in Fisher’s clever and expertly crafted plot. Add this one to your reading list immediately.”
