'Vampire Academy: Blood Sisters' Has a Director and Cast, is a Thing

Jacob Hall — Sat, 02 Feb 2013 16:33:28 +0000

The basic pitch for the 'Vampire Academy' book series sounds like someone got the grand idea to mash 'Harry Potter' and 'Twilight' together into one franchise...which means the film version is going to make a bajillion dollars. Despite the success of the books and the surefire success of the film, when your movie is called 'Vampire Academy: Blood Sisters,' we're allowed to scoff...because your movie is actually titled 'Vampire Academy: Blood Sisters.'

Anyway, all of this has been a roundabout way of letting you know that the film now has a cast and director.
