Pilot Update: Reoptioning The Selection by Kiera Cass

Remember when the CW said it was going to turn The Selection by Kiera Cass into a pilot last year?  Some casting was done and then it kinda fizzed out?  Well, it's coming back for the 2013 fall pilot season!!!  Except only one of the original cast members stayed with it, Sean Patrick Thomas who will play Sylvan Santos.  Sorry, Aimee Teegarden fans: (  The rest of the characters shall be cast shortly.



Summary of The Selection:

For thirty-five girls, the Selection is the chance of a lifetime. The opportunity to escape the life laid out for them since birth. To be swept up in a world of glittering gowns and priceless jewels. To live in a palace and compete for the heart of gorgeous Prince Maxon.

But for America Singer, being Selected is a nightmare. It means turning her back on her secret love with Aspen, who is a caste below her. Leaving her home to enter a fierce competition for a crown she doesn't want. Living in a palace that is constantly threatened by violent rebel attacks.

Then America meets Prince Maxon. Gradually, she starts to question all the plans she's made for herself—and realizes that the life she's always dreamed of may not compare to a future she never imagined.
