„Intr-o brutala viitoare America (acum cu numele de Illéa) vietile oamenilor sunt complet controlate de regulile castelului, iar un singur eveniment poate schimba vietile fetelor. „The Selection” – 35 de fete alese intamplator se vor bate pentru dragoste printului, iar una singura va fi printesa sa.
Dar pentru America Singer, a fi selectata inseamna a intoarce spatele iubirii ei secrete – Aspen, a intra intr-o competitie pentru o coroana pe care nu si-o doreste si a trai intr-un loc amenintat de furia rebelilor. Nu trece mult si America il intalneste pe printul Prince Maxon si incepe sa se indoiasca de tot ce isi dorea pana acum. ”
Cu un rating de 4.06 (Goodreads) si a vanzarilor mari, ocupand un loc printre cele mai vandute cartii, „The Selection” o sa devina si serie. O serie marca CW, anuntata inca de anul trecut, iar filmarile? Da, deja au inceput 😀

Acestia erau actorii pana acum, dar potrivit site-ului Teen.com, Aimee Teegarden nu mai face parte din echipa „The Selection”, din cauza ca , actrita a ales sa fie un „extraterestru” din noul sau proiect „Oxygen”, refuzand sa mai fie „Printesa”.
Ramane de vazut cine mai pleaca sau nu, si cine ii va lua locul. Intrebarea e, de ce sa dai cu piciorul unui rol asa de frumos?
Oricum, probabil ca or sa aleaga pe cineva care merita 100% rolul, astept seria cu mare drag, stiu ca o sa fie ceva frumos (cu toate ca nu am citit intreaga carte :))si nu stiu mai nimic despre cum se termina ).

For thirty-five girls, the Selection is the chance of a lifetime. The opportunity to escape the life laid out for them since birth. To be swept up in a world of glittering gowns and priceless jewels. To live in a palace and compete for the heart of gorgeous Prince Maxon.
But for America Singer, being Selected is a nightmare. It means turning her back on her secret love with Aspen, who is a caste below her. Leaving her home to enter a fierce competition for a crown she doesn’t want. Living in a palace that is constantly threatened by violent rebel attacks.
Then America meets Prince Maxon. Gradually, she starts to question all the plans she’s made for herself–and realizes that the life she’s always dreamed of may not compare to a future she never imagined.

Aimee Teegarden
Although the Hunger Games-esque YA book series, The Selection, was confirmed for a television pilot on The CW a couple weeks ago, its leading lady was still left up in the air. And it looks like it’ll stay that way for a little bit longer as Aimee Teegarden is no longer available for the production.Rather than take on the part of a princess, Aimee will be working alongside extra-terrestrials on her new project, Oxygen. According to Deadline, the show “centers on Emery (played by Aimee), a teen girl who falls in love with an alien boy, one of nine of his kind integrated into a suburban high school.”
The Selection
Fans of the YA book series The Selection rejoice — it officially has a pilot order from The CW. TVLine is reporting that the network has decided to move forward with a revamped version of The Hunger Games-esque drama. Many thought the highly-anticipated show would be actually already be on the air by this time, but the network decided to put it through some rewrites before moving forward.If you’re wondering what The Selection is all about, here’s the scoop. Set in a future 300 years from now, it’s based on the YA novel series of the same name, and centers on a young working class girl who is selected by lottery to compete against 25 other women for a prince’s hand in marriage and eventually become queen. (Think The Hunger Games meetsThe Bachelor).Although it has a pilot order, that still doesn’t necessarily mean it will be put through to series. The Selection‘s original pilot was filmed with Friday Night Lights star Aimee Teegarden in the main role, but it’s not known if she’ll be returning for the revamped version.
