Since this is a film adaptation, we can assume that the movie will follow the main points of the book though some changes may be made for the film. The Selection is set in a dystopian future where 35 girls are selected to move to the palace and compete for Prince Maxons heart. The selection is a chance of a lifetime, giving a select few the possibility of escaping a rigid caste system that rules society. And yet, for America Singer, being Selected is a nightmare.

The Selection was in development to become a movie. Who is Developing The Selection Movie? There was a powerhouse of women leading The Selection movie adaptation which is exciting given the message of the book is one of empowerment. Saudi Arabian filmmaker Haifaa Al-Mansour was set to direct Netflixs film adaptation of The Selection. She also worked on the 2018 film, Nappily Ever After for Netflix. Denise Di Novi and Pouya Shahbazian were set to produce the film, with Margaret French Isaac serving as executive producer. Past Attempts at Making The Selection Movie Netflix is not the first production house to want to take on The Selection for a movie or TV series. Initially, the CW announced a book-to-TV series adaptation for The Selection, producing a pilot in both 2012 and again in 2013, but neither was picked up for a full series. Warner Brothers then purchased the film rights in 2015, and a film adaptation was supposedly in the works in 2016 but there was still no traction made toward the making of a movie. Netflix purchased the film rights in 2020 where it remains today. However, Cass announced on her blog in 2023 that Netflix is no longer moving forward in making The Selection movie: Well, friends, its time to make it official: Netflix will not be making The Selection Movie.
