Beautiful Creatures Acquired by Warner Bros.

Warner Bros. Pictures has acquired BEAUTIFUL CREATURES, according to VARIETY [1].

Richard LaGravenese will write and direct the film based on the first of a five-novel series by Kami Garcia and Margaret Stohl.

"I love supernatural stories that have well-drawn mythologies, and I liked that this book has all the basic elements of a classic first love story with a supernatural layer over it," LaGravenese said. "So the first time they hear the words 'boyfriend' and 'girlfriend,' they accidentally overhear each other telepathically. Their first kiss comes after he saves her life, and their first date is part of a bigger adventure that leads to the unraveling of the mysterious curse that haunts her family."
