Disney Jumps on Twilight Bandwagon, Is It Too Late?

Disney has optioned rights to
Fallen, a young-adult novel by Lauren Kate that features angels. Mark Ciardi and Gordon Gray (both are responsible for Invicible, Miracle, The New Guy, and The Rookie) will produce the film adaptation but no director or cast have been attached to the project yet.
The book is part of a four book series, all of which were included in the deal. The contemporary story centers on an alienated girl torn between two charismatic young men, unaware that they are fallen angels who have battled over her for centuries.
Trying to cash in on the success of the famed Twilight series, Disney is now moving in the direction of teen fantasy romance. Do you think girls will fall as hard for angels as they did for vampires?
