Hey Girl, you know what's going to make your boyfriend hate watching The Notebook even more? When you bring him to see The Notebook THE MUSICAL on Broadway. According to CBS, Nicholas Sparks is planning to bring his book, and movie, to the Great White Way.
Sparks says, "Obviously, The Notebook is going to be some sort of musical and a lot of fun to be involved in that process, too." OBVIOUSLY. But as of now, he has no idea who will play the parts of Allie and Noah, he just wants "someone who can sing." Ahem, you know who can sing? Ryan Gosling. But let's say he's not interested—who do you want cast in these roles?
And thank you Sparks, for not going with a Miley Cyrus-led Last Song musical. [via Vulture]
