Director: Mark Waters
Stars: Zoey Deutch, Lucy Fry, Danila Kozlovsky, Gabriel Byrne
The Buzz: Mark Waters hasn't had the best luck since Mean Girls (2004), but the director's underrated take on The Spiderwick Chronicles (2008) proved he can handle the fantasy genre. Here, he partners with his brother, Heathers (1988) screenwriter Daniel Waters, to mount the first installment of a hopeful franchise based on Richelle Mead's 6-volume series of best-selling novels that sound a bit like Twilight meets X-Men. A potential advantage this contender has over its competition: two of the six books have been turned into graphic novels thus far.
