“Did you have fun making Beautiful Creatures?

It was great. But what is amazing is that, until I watched the trailer, I didn’t really realise how much I was the main character of the movie. When I took the part I thought it was for one of the side characters and then it evolved. It was great working with Emma Thomson and Viola Davis is simply amazing.”

“With so many book to movie adaptations going on, it’s hard to know whether they’ll be any good or whether directors are going to get carried away being arty farty and completely change the story.

It looks like new film Beautiful Creatures is set to do some serious justice to Kami Garcia’s haunting Caster Chronicles though, and withAlice Englert as Lena and fit newbie Alden Ehrenreich as Ethan, we cannot wait for it to hit the cinemas.”

That may not be a surprise to those that have been reading the Beautiful Creaturesseries, but fans might be surprised at how LaGravenese turned the book into a movie. “When I adapted the book I had to give myself the freedom to omit, to recreate, and if I knew too much of how every little plot was entwined I couldn’t get the movie that I wanted to make, I couldn’t tell the best story that I knew how,” said the director. “Hopefully the fans will understand. It’s the same story, it’s the same characters, it’s the same experience.”

Interview from the Roma Cinemafest with Kami and me!

Here’s a translated portion:

“When a new saga comes out, labels help the public understand what it’s about. In this case, can we say that your story falls between Twilight and Harry Potter?…”

“Our story is very romantic like Twilight, but, like Harry Potter, our book has a lot of characters that interact with them, especially adults, who are crucial to the story. The magic in our world is different than that of Harry Potter and Twilight, but it’s still magic, so it’s right to say Beautiful Creatures is in between those two books. “
