Cast Revealed for Netflix Adaptation of John Green Novel


The holder of a juris doctor from the University of Alabama, Edgar "Ed" Gentle is an experienced attorney who also serves as director of Custom Cable Services. When he isn't working, Ed Gentle enjoys reading. He counts John Green as one of his favorite authors.

Three of Green's novels - Paper Towns, Looking for Alaska, and The Fault in Our Stars - have been adapted for film, and a fourth film is in the works. Netflix is developing Let it Snow, which was written by Green and fellow authors Maureen Johnson and Lauren Myracle, into a film with production expected to begin in early 2019. The script was written by Victoria Strouse and Luke Snellin is expected to direct the adaptation of the New York Times bestselling novel. 

The story centers on high school seniors in a small town who face unexpected opportunities and complications as a result of a massive snowstorm on Christmas Eve. While roles have yet to be confirmed, the cast was announced in January and it includes Isabela Moner, Shameik Moore, Odeya Rush, and Kiernan Shipka, the latter of whom recently appeared in Netflix's Chilling Adventures of Sabrina. Other cast members include Miles Robbins, Liv Hewson, and Joan Cusack.
