Welcome to YA Onscreen - let's hop to!
Please oh please let this pan out: Selma director Ava DuVernay is being pursued to tackle a new adaptation of A Wrinkle In Time, which, to be honest, has never really had a very strong feature adaptation.
And the Gilmore Girls gossip just keeps on coming! After last week's hopeful message that Melissa McCarthy may still make an appearance, Sookie started throwin' some shade.
Thanks for the invite, but sadly no one asked me or Sookie to come back to Stars Hollow. Wish them all the best!! https://t.co/II2Atug4wx

Oh snap! The rest of the scoop is sweeter in tone: Liza Weil is returning, and so is Matt Czuchry! And SQUEE I missed you, Michel!

NBC has ordered a pilot sequel to Cruel Intentions, focusing on Sebastian's son. And oh-man-oh-man they're trying to get SMG to reprise her role.
Deborah Harkness’ A Discovery of Witches is being made into a television series, with eyes on the entire All Souls Trilogy to be adapted eventually. Here's the synopsis:
It’s the story of Diana Bishop, a young scholar at Oxford who is a descendant of the Salem witches. When she accidentally unlocks an enchanted manuscript, she is compelled to embrace the magic in her blood and enters a forbidden romance with charming 1,500-year-old vampire Matthew Clairmont.
