The Giver Adaptation

There has been talk about a film adaptation of author Lois Lowery's The Giver for almost as long as the book has been in publication, Bill Cosby purchasing the rights to the book all the way back in 1994, but only now does it actually seem like the movie is going to happen. According to BoxOffice Mojo, The Weinstein Company has officially given the film a release date and is now scheduled to have The Giver in theaters on August 15, 2014. 

Set to be directed by Philip Noyce, the story centers on a young man named Jonas (BrentonThwaites) who lives in what is believed by all to be a utopiansociety. All emotion, history and even color has been purged from the world, and when boys of girls come of age they are assigned their lot in life. When it is Jonas' turn he is told that he is to become the new Receiver of Memory, a highly-regarded position in society who, as the title implies, becomes the keeper of history and memory. He becomes the tutor of the former Receiver of Memory, now known as The Giver (Jeff Bridges), and his world is opened up as he is suddenly able to understand the meaning of color and emotion. But with Jonas'position also comes the burden of knowing the horrifying secret behind his society and what it takes to remain as it is.

The film also stars MerylStreep as the Chief Elder in the society and the central antagonists, Alexander Skarsgard as Jonas' father and Cameron Monaghan as Asher, Jonas' best friend.
