Warner Bros. to Adapt Heist Society
The film is being described as The Thomas Crown Affair for teens. The story follows Katarina Bishop, a young woman that hails from a long line of cat burglars and master thieves. After attempting to leave her crime life behind, her dad becomes the prime suspect behind a mobster's missing art collection. Thus Katarina is forced back to her thieving lifestyle as she must assemble a crew to track down the art and get her father back. While the characters found in the novel are all in their teens, the studio is going to cast them in their early twenties.
Carter's book is set to hit stores next week. The film is gearing up for a 2011 release date.

Ugh that is so... not cool they NEED to keep them as teens, if they make them in their twenties then they are going to have to change some of the book, and then it is going to be Percy Jackson and The Lightning Theif all over agin. :(

I wish they would actually keep them as teens. I have longed to see a good teen heist movie.
