Is Miley Cyrus an “All-American Girl”?

Are you familiar with the popular teen novel All-American Girl by Meg Cabot? It is a very popular book (as are all of her books) and Disney is once again trying to make a movie based on the novel. They made the same move back in 2004 and were set to cast Raven Symone as the lead girl, Samantha Madison. Well, supposedly there were some arguments about the casting decision and the rights to the book were given back to Cabot.

Disney now has another leading lady in mind for the role and it’s Miley Cyrus. Disney is hoping to launch Miley more into movies and this would do it. The release date has been set to early 2010. I can’t wait to see Miley break away from the Hannah Montana role and really further her acting career. Don’t get me wrong, I love the show, but obviously at some point she has to move on. I think Miley’s movie career is just beginning and that we are going to see some more great things from her.

If you have no idea what the book All-American Girl is about, read the description below the cut.

Grade 7 Up-Artistic and concerned about social issues, 15-year-old Samantha Madison becomes everybody’s All-American Girl (HarperCollins, 2002) when she thwarts an attempt on the life of the president. This entry in Meg Cabot’s Princess Diaries series focuses on Sam’s hopeless crush on her sister’s boyfriend, and her growing friendship with the president’s son. There’s lots of humor as she sorts out her relationships with her popular older sister and brilliant younger sister. There’s also changing expectations from classmates who now view Sam as a celebrity. Fortunately, Sam’s determination combined with some good advice from a new art teacher lead to a predicable happy ending. Narrator Ariadne Meyers makes the story funny and hip with great comic timing and “totally” teen intonation. Though the plot is pretty standard, the dialogue has lots of laughs. Libraries where the Princess Diaries have been flying off the shelves will find this a popular addition to their audio collection.

  • haley

    i really don’t think miley would work for that rule.
    she’s not like that good of an actress, and that role is kind of like way differnt then anything she could ever do.

  • Maria

    Im actually not even close to being ready for her to leave HM behind. I mean anyways this movie wouldnt be until 2010 anyways, but i LOVE HM and she owes all her fame to the show.

  • ang

    HM is good but mile has to break out i think it would be a good challenge for her to prove that she can act as i know she can do it if she wants! if she couldnt act or sing how did she get so popular and dont tell me its because of her father who cares bout a washed up country singer who has used miley to get his career jumpstarted again!

  • Francesca

    TO B- I KNOW, I JUST LIKE THEM TOGETEHER

  • Lola

    Chill it. Miley and nick have nothign in common and in this case opposites wont attract if they broke up its for a reason. Nick knew well

  • http://no galila

    no i dont think so i think selena G. or dime L. should have the roll of an “All American girl”

  • http://no galila

    accually lily from HM would b best but miley i dont think so i just cant imagine her playing the part it wouldent be right she should stick to HM.

  • Andrea

    i don’t think Miley is ready for movies!! she isn’t that great of an actress…maybe if she has more practice she could do better and would be ready for films. i would do a much better job!

  • Taylor

    i was just thinking of making a movie for this book its my favorite maby i could be one of the characters

  • Taylor

    also the character samantha madison has RED hair miley cyrus wouldn’t look good as a red head

  • zoey

    miley wouldnt really be good for that part. its not like her.

  • Allysa Brown

    after hannah montana is overr, her career will shoot doown !
    this movie wont be the best, neither the worst, miley might end up like those actress’ tht show up once a yr.
    i highly recomend she becomes a country musician not a pop star, her pop music suckz, her countryness is soooooooooooo mux beter !
