Variety is reporting that Daisy Ridley has been cast in Lionsgate's adaptation of "popular young adult novel Chaos Walking," which is weird since the first book is actually titled The Knife of Never Letting Go but WHO CARES DAISY RIDLEY IS GOING TO BE IN THIS MOVIE. Which means, after years and years of rumors and false starts, IT IS FINALLY DEFINITELY HAPPENING.

According to the article, the film will go into production next year. NEXT YEAR. GUYS. THIS IS A REAL THING.

So, Daisy's going to be Viola, I assume?

Which leads me to the next important question: who will play Todd? I cast Jesse Plemons in my review way back in the day. (Is he too old? Please say he's not too old.)

Just kidding, here's the most important question: IS THERE A DOG AWESOME ENOUGH TO PLAY MANCHEE?

Join me for some wild speculation in the comments. But remember: NO SPOILERS. I mean it.

p.s. OMG who will be Mayor Prentiss?
