I'm going to have to agree with you. I don't think it should be done by Disney. Don't get me wrong, I like Disney, not the new version of the last 10 or so years, but the old Disney and the old Disney movies, but I don't want to see Disney take this on. I want to see someone else take it and make it into something superb.
So I just found a FB page that is anti-MC. https://www.facebook.com/notes/wings-...
This is NOT my FB page but it's not a bad idea.
There has been a lot of negative feedback about Miley Cyrus playing "Laurel" for the Disney version of the book, "Wings". As a fan of the book, I too am upset by the choice made by the producers of the book-based film. After reading some thoughts from the author, Aprilynne Pike herself, I've decided we as fans need to take a stand. Aprilynne stated that she is excited for the film regardless of who the producers chose to play the lead character since it's a huge step for the book and her career. Her words were encouraging and she didn't want us as fans to be upset with her since it wasn't her choice and other than allowing the book to be made into a film, she had no hand in it otherwise.
So here's what I propose we do. We need to contact Disney Motion Pictures and voice our opinions as to what we think of Miley being cast as "Laurel". The least we can do is say that we tried and if we get enough of a fan base back up, maybe they'll at least take it into consideration.
I've done some research and found the name of the Vice President of Casting at Disney. Let's join together as fans and do something about this!!! Every letter counts and we need to do this incredible book some justice.
Let's get writing!!!
