Warner Bros. looks to Beautiful Creatures to continue franchise success
The Harry Potter franchise will conclude in 2010 with the release Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part II. Warner Bros. are not resting on their laurels however and have already signed a new fantasy saga that they hope will continue the franchise success.
Beautiful Creatures, the first in a five-book series by Kami Garcia and Margaret Stohl, focuses on Ethan Wate, a popular South Carolina high school student who becomes witched by Lena Duchanne, a 16 year-old grappling with a family curse and budding supernatural powers.
"The first time they hear the words ‘boyfriend’ and ‘girlfriend,’ they accidentally overhear each other telepathically," he explained of the story’s two protagonists. "Their first kiss comes after he saves her life, and their first date is part of a bigger adventure that leads to the unravelling of the mysterious curse that haunts her family," said LaGravanese.
