Elle Fanning in Talks for Beware the Girl
Elle Fanning is in talks to appear in Beware the Girl, Teresa Toten’s YA novel of intrigue and backbiting in a wealthy private school.
It’s early doors so far, with neither a director or a screenwriter in place. Nor, according to Deadline, do we know which character Elle will be playing.
The book follows Kate, a scholarship student who inveigles herself into friendships with wealthy classmates.
One such target is Olivia, an "it" girl from a rich family who has her own dark secrets. And matters come to a head when a handsome and charming new member of staff joins the school.
Fanning will next be seen in Ben Affleck's Live By Night, due 13 January, and 20th Century Women, which is out on 20 January.
