'The Fault in Our Stars' Movie Team to Film John Green's 'Paper Towns' Starring Nat Wolff
Fans of "The Fault in Our Stars" will have a blast as another John Green novel called "Paper Towns" is picked up by Fox 2000 for filming. As reported, the movie will be reuniting the TFiOS movie team and will be starring Nat Wolff.
In an exclusive report made by Deadline, Scott Godfrey and Michael H. Weber is said to be adapting the novel into a movie, while Wyck Godfrey and Marty Bowen will be producing. American young adult fiction author John Green will be joining the screenwriters as executive producers.
According to John Green's Web site, "Paper Towns" is a story about a boy named Quentin Jacobsen who has spent his entire life secretly loving Margo Roth Spiegelman. When Margo suggested that she and Quentin go on an all-nighter adventure, namely an "ingenious campaign of revenge," the latter quickly follows.
After the said adventure, Margo changes from being an enigma to becoming a mystery. Quentin goes out to unlock the mystery and soon learns the clues. But the closer Quentin gets to Margo, the more Quentin realizes that Margo is not really the person he once knew her to be.
"Paper Towns" is set in Orlando, Florida in the U.S. where New York Times bestselling author John Green grew up. In a question and answer portion posted on the author's Web site, Green revealed that he had wanted to write a mystery. Green said that he wanted to write a mystery "in which the obstacle was ultimately that one character (Quentin) has so profoundly and consistently misimagined another character (Margo) that he can't find her."
American actor, singer-songwriter, musician Nat Wolff is chosen to star the new movie adaptation, but his costars are yet to be announced. According to MTV News, Mae Whitman, Liana Liberato or Kaya Scodelario may fit the role as Wolff's leading lady.
Meanwhile, Wolff is playing the supporting actor role named Isaac in "The Fault in Our Stars" starring Shailene Woodley, who recently starred in the post-apocalyptic movie "Divergent," and Ansel Elgort. TFiOS movie will be out in theaters in the U.S. on June 6 and June 5 in Australia.
