#SDCC - San Diego Comic Con - The Giver

By David Massey



The Giver - The iconic and controversial novel finds a home on the screen after a decade of efforts from Jeff Bridges (exec producer / star) who had initially hoped to cast his father in the title role. In attendance were Bridges (now of age as The Giver), writer Lois Lowry, and the 2 young leads, Brenton Thwaites & Odeya Rush. We were treated to an impressive extended trailer summing up a film that is admittedly young-adult focused but with some substance and teeth. Rounding out the cast of this disturbingly antiseptic dystopia are Meryl Streep & Alexander Skarsgard.
