Legend by Marie Lu Headed for the Big Screen..

 The film rights for Legend are currently in the hands of CBS Films, with Wyck Godfrey (Producer of The Twilight Saga, The Fault in Our Stars, The Maze Runner & Eragon) and Mark Bowen on as Producers. Newcomers, Andrew Barrer and Gabe Ferrari are writing the screenplay, with Jonathan Levine officially signed on as Director. There's no information of a release date yet, or even a finished script, so there's plenty of time to get stuck into a new series before it hits the big screen!

Synopsis:

Legend by Marie Lu
What was once the western United States is now home to the Republic, a nation perpetually at war with its neighbors. Born into an elite family in one of the Republic's wealthiest districts, fifteen-year-old June is a prodigy being groomed for success in the Republic's highest military circles. Born into the slums, fifteen-year-old Day is the country's most wanted criminal. But his motives may not be as malicious as they seem.

From very different worlds, June and Day have no reason to cross paths - until the day June's brother, Metias, is murdered and Day becomes the prime suspect. Caught in the ultimate game of cat and mouse, Day is in a race for his family's survival, while June seeks to avenge Metias's death. But in a shocking turn of events, the two uncover the truth of what has really brought them together, and the sinister lengths their country will go to keep its secrets.

Full of nonstop action, suspense, and romance, this novel is sure to move readers as much as it thrills.
