Look out J.K. Rowling, Stephanie Meyer may be right on your heels to becoming filthy rich by writing young adult fiction as well!
With the Twilight Saga: New Moon coming out this November, she is already raking in the dough... and she'll add more to her bank account when the next two Twilight Saga films will be made in the coming years.
Well, according to Variety, Meyer's adult novel The Host will be adapted into a movie by an underrated sci-fi director Andrew Niccol (he directed Gattaca). The book is about an alien race dubbed "souls" that take over the Earth by inhabiting human bodies. One of the "souls" has some trouble taking over her host and the plot thickens...
I haven't read the book, but with Meyer's usual fiction, I imagine love finds a way in this sci-fi, creepy invasion somehow.
Producerd recently got a hold of the rights to adapation and we imagine Stephanie will be on set... let's hope the director will take the reigns and make this movie intense and awesome! We don't want it to be Twilight for adults, they won't bite...
