Universal Studios has acquired the rights to the Zoey Dean novel The A-List (Little, Brown). The film, which will be scripted by screenwriters Pam Falk and Mike Ellis (The Wedding Planner) follows the cultural adjustment of a 17-year-old girl who leaves Manhattan her senior year and enters the lives of the rich and famous at Beverly Hills High. Alloy Entertainment will produce the film. The second two books in The A-List, Girls on Film and Blonde Ambition both hit The New York Times Bestseller lists within weeks of their publication. The fourth title, Tall Cool One, is scheduled to arrive in stores this spring.
