Stop everything! There’s a Sweet Valley High movie coming out

Get ready for a trip down memory lane, because the long-awaited Sweet Valley High movie is finally happening.

According to reports, a big-screen adaptation of the popular young adult book series is already in the works and we can not contain our excitement.

The highly successful series, written by Francine Pascal, was first printed in 1983 and for three years between 1994 to 1997, the novels were turned into a TV show that ran for four seasons.

But, rather than revive the old show, writers Harper Dill and Kristen Smith have been recruited to create the upcoming feature film adaptation.

This is the first time the two writers have worked together, but judging by the pair's previous works, we're expecting good things.

Harper is the writer behind the hit Fox sitcom, The Mick and the 13 Little Blue Envelopes scripts, while Kristen has writing credits on hit movies such as 10 Things I Hate About You, Legally Blonde and She's The Man.

With over 600 books to draw inspiration from, there's no question that these talented ladies have a lot of material to work with.

No word yet on a release date or even cast predictions, but Deadline did confirm that there has been strong interest in the movie for some time now.

Watch this space.
