I would like the The Forest of Hands and Teeth to be a movie. Reading it, I found it to be very cinematic and I could imagine everything; from the tiny village surrounded by barbed wire, to the stone cathedral, to the sounds of zombies scrabbling at the fences. To play Mary, I would pick the British actress Kaya Scodelario. She can do an American accent and she also has the right mix of toughness - even ruthlessness - and vulnerability. (Some fans wanted her for Katniss, in fact.)

Q. What book that hasn't been turned into a movie (yet) would you most like to see make it to the big screen, and who would you like cast as your favourite character?

Oh WOW, what a fabulous choice! You're right that the book is incredibly cinematic, and it'd translate to the big screen so well. I love your choice of Kaya too. She'd've been an awesome Katniss, and I could see her pulling Mary off beautifully.
ReplyDeleteHopping through. I've heard great things about Ryan's books. Haven't heard of Kaya though. Pretty name.
