Miley Cyrus Moves to Grown-Up Roles
Film Gecko —
Miley Cyrus is currently working on the upcoming Hannah Montana movie, which I’m sure will delight tween fans everywhere, including my 11-year-old daughter.
But look for the pop star-actress to take on a more grown-up role in an untitled film penned by author Nicholas Sparks.
Nicholas Sparks? Yeah, that’s my thought, too. He’s known for such novels/movies as A Walk to Remember, The Notebook, and the upcoming Nights in Rodanthe. All fairly heavy romantic dramas. Is this a smart move for Cyrus?
Here’s how I see it: Better for her to transition with these ...

Disney still loves its cash calf, Miley Cyrus, and is doing all it can to see her mature in its own pastures. The studio has hired Nicholas Sparks for a tailor-made project along the lines of his A Walk to Remember. He’ll simultaneously pen the novel and script, the plot and title of which are unknown. The only thing certain about the film is that it won’t feature any singing parts for Cyrus.
Though I wish it was for another Romancing the Stone sequel (yeah, really), it’s great that Michael Douglas and Danny DeVito will be reunited once again for the Steven Soderbergh-produced ...

... tartlet by The Notebook's Nicholas Sparks. It was Sparks whose source material gave Mandy Moore that first non-singing role in A Walk to Remember, a role that helped her navigate the narrow path from irrelevant pop singer to irrelevant star of License to Wed. Even still, Cyrus is surely hoping for somewhat similar luck, as she must undoubtedly fear the grim possibility of becoming Britney Spears in Crossroads. [Variety] ...

Miley Cyrus wants to get dramatic.
Variety brings word today that Miley Cyrus is planning to star in a movie written by Nicholas Sparks. The prolific author will work on the novel and the screenplay simultaneously.
Cyrus reportedly wants to “broaden her image” and “transition to adult fare.” This makes some sense in that it’s obvious she and her formerly tween audience are outgrowing each other, and Disney is not so subtley grooming others to take her place. On the other hand, let me give you a piece of advice, kid–don’t be in such a hurry to grow up. Trust me on this ...

Message in a Bottle didn't do it, but The Notebook sent Hollywood into a Nicholas Sparks frenzy. For the most part, it's been adaptations of his novels, like that Nights in Rodanthe and the upcoming Dear John.
