Miley Cyrus & Disney Produce ‘All American Girl’ Movie
The popular teen novel ‘All-American Girl‘ by Meg Cabot, has been taken back off the shelf by Disney and is once again going into production.

The book was previously optioned in 2004 with Raven Symoné considered for the starring role. She would have played the part of Samantha Madison, a girl who gains nationwide attention after saving the life of the President.
After some dispute over casting decisions and the screenplay, the rights to the book were returned to Cabot. Now the movie is back on track, and rumor is that ‘Hannah Montana‘ star Miley Ray Cyrus, has been asked to play what would have been Symoné’s role.
She is currently set to star in a film version of her Disney television show, and Disney hopes to launch her into movies further by casting her in ‘All-American Girl’ with a release date of early 2010.”

I loved that book and i think Miley will ruin the movie if she ends up being in it.
miley come up with your own stayl and live lindsay lohan stayl alon like you but no no no no stik to the staf you know
Miley is a great actress , I think she just rocks, All American Girl would be great for her, except if there’s a sequel cuz the book(sequel) has some sex scenes and all that stuff so that would be the a problem for her
Actually, Meg Cabot denies this on her site http://www.megcabot.com/diary and insists she still has the rights to the movie. Just to let you know.
She can’t! The part’s not right for her, she’s too…dainty to be Sam. Sam wears black 24/7 Miley might have convulsions if she does that.
I would barf is Miley would play the leading part of such a good book.. She would make it the worst acting-in-movie of the century! personally I do not think she dan sing, dance or act, so she better just LAY OFF this movie…
Im glad Meg Cabot denies this rumor though=)
ewwwww
miley’s personality does not match sam @ allll!!!!
ewwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww
i would die if she does be sam!!!
i’m sure that movie would not sell even a copy!
Everyone is right!! Miley crus should not play the part…. HOLLYWOOD noes better. Ew even thinkin bout her play the part is just fake, i dont know why little kids look up to her. SHEEE even said she has a boring lifE!!!!!
anyone BUT miley!!!!
please!!!!
i HATE her!!!
i’ll even give you reasons:
1 Sam wears all black and miley dosent
2 there personility dosen’t fit a tiny bit
3 sam donsen’t like spotlight too much but miley practically eats spotlight
4 sam has red hair and miley dosen’t
5 sam has realy curly hair and miley dosent
6 sam dosen’t have crooked teeth like miley
7 sam dosen’t have a southern accent like miley
so over all
miley cyrus should NEVER be acting as sam and should never come on the movie!!!!
did you know that miley is crashing on nick but nick daz not like her at all
Yeah, I really don’t think that Miley Cyrus will fit the role of Samantha Madison in the production movie. Seriously, and personally, I think it’s because I just don’t feel her vibe.
But it’s just my opinion. And I REALLY DO THINK THAT SHE WILL never FIT THE BIG ROLE!!!
Raven Symone and Ellen Page would be good choices. Any young star will do but Miley Cyrus.
They are not making an All-American Girl movie yet. Meg Cabot wrote in her blog (http://www.megcabot.com/diary/) on Sunday, April 6, 2008 that she still owns film rights.
And even if they do make one eventually, I really hope Miley isn’t Sam. I have nothing against Miley; she just isn’t at all the right person for the role, in my opinion.
Tought this was a porn website but whatever
Miley Cyrus will completely ruin this role if she is to play Samantha. This is one of my favorite Meg Cabot books and I’d love to see it become a movie but not if Miley Cyrus is in the lead role.
OMGGG why the hell is Miley playing her part??
she’s gonna ruin it!
ughh
I hate Miley because she is not a good singer actress or Dancer She ois sick
Miley Should Play Samantha :)
I think Miley is completly wrong for the roal. She’s a complete BIMBO. The kind of person Sam Maddison would HATE. I hope the movie is made because I loved the book aswell as The Mediator Series – also needs to be made into a movie! COME ON DISNEY!
miley will just be wrong for samantha miley’s 2 prissy
I havent read the book yet but i think its great miley is breaking away from hannah montana :D !! – I love that show but she has to break away somtime (: !! – P.s if you guys hate miley keep it to your selfs !!
- Miiileeeyy rocks !!
IF I SEE MILEY ON THAT SCREEN AS SAM…I WILL SHOOT THE SCREEN (AT HER) AND GO TO WHOEVER DID THE CASTINGS AND SCREAM AT THEM FOR ONE HOUR STRAIGHT ON HOW MUCH THEY SUCK AT THEIR JOB!! MILEY BETTER NOT RUIN MY FAV BOOK OR I WILL DO STUFF!!
Me and my friend will have to bust a cap if Miley is the lead.
I mean, Miley Cyrus’s 15 minutes of fame is freakin OVER! Yea she did her little
{Im a regular girl AND a pop star! yea!}
Meg Cabot should make a casting call for ppl who are NOT famous so other ppl can be famous! {and so Miley can’t be in the movie unless she EARNS it!}
It doesn’t matter if the person doing the role of samantha is famous or not. it’s just MILEY CYRUS?! dude STAY IN DISNEY CHANNEL!! or doing that pop singing u do. in my perspective samantha has always been one of the coolest characters i have read about. she is not afraid to be SARCASTIC, DIRECT, ARTISTIC, and totally hating the world!! miley cyrus? pff practically half brainwashed ppl follow her every move! what does she have to hate?! i’m sorry but i just hope they select a series actress, not some pop star just doing some random movie to get even more famous. i hope they pic the right actress, and actor for david ;) i’m going to go reread the book again!
I’m not that much of a Miley fan either, and personal if she were to take on the role of Samantha i’d of died and gone to production hell. But, who could that on the role of Samantha and David? and have the movie stay as faithful to the novella as possible.
mm….let’s see…who noes….i just hope fr the best. wat if miley turns up to be ok
Miley isnt too bad. They call actors, actors because they can act. Miley can easily change her personality to suit the character. What I want to know is…whos playing david?
hi miley its me lilly i love you.
there is NO WAY miley could pull off the role of samantha madison! they should have open auditions. samantha is supposed to be someone that no one has ever heard of. miley is just…wrong for that part.
miley is great but she can sooooooooooooo not be samantha she is more of a lucy if she is cast as sam i won’t even go it will be to sad
NO NO NO NO NOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!
NO NO NO NO NOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!! miley cy(SUCKS) should not play the part she is not the girl sam is.She is tooo ugly and discusting!! do not ruin the character in (all american girl)the book. i adore sam but i guess if miley will play the part im going to hate her!:(
no wayyyy. i loved that book and both raven and miley are not who i envisioned would play sam. i always imagined amy davidson, who played kerry in 8 simple rules to play her, but of course she’s too old now. what about willa holland?
also, i think Jesse Swenson would make a good David.
I was thinking, because The Princess Diaries film was so disappointing and nothing at all like the books, that there should be a TV series based on the books, like what was done with Gossip Girl. There have been 10 books based on Mia’s life from the age of 14 to 18. There are many aspiring young actresses out there who would fit into the role.
Not Miley, please. Can’t a totally unfamous person play Sam? It would definitely fit her character much better, instead of someone that already is famous and know it and act like it (diva).
i really like miley cyrus but she definitely isn’t right for the part of samantha madison.
I love LOVE that book but I think miley is not the right girl mileys to pretty because Sam isn’t supposed to be popular but she would look popular
my life has been ruined by this article. this is my favorite book. i dislike (i’d use another term, but, alas, the rules!) miley cyrus, her acting is the worst, and she could NOT be Sam. Plus, I bet Disney would find some way to put her singing into it, which would further ruin my life.
Aw. I’m dead. This is so sad.
i think jack should be played by the guy who played Warren Peace in Sky High.
Isnt Samatha Maddison supposed to be like, red curly hair, wears black and listenes to gwen stefani? I mean i dont think Miley syrus or raven samone are good for this part! I think miley might be more suited for the part of Lucy. Sam would have a field day with that! WHOS PLAYING DAVID??????
I agree that Miley is all wrong for this role or role for that matter. She would ruin the whole movie. The movie theatres would be filled with people who think she has talent. These people are lying to themselves.
ilove miley and all but my stomach kinda dropped when i heard she would play that cause then everyone i know will be lyers and suddenly say ilove that book i so read it and so on when i was the one reading while they were playing ha losers !p.s. i dont care if u dont like miley its ur opinion like a true miley fan i can like her and notcare if u do or dont so dont give me crap about it
The Book Is Awesomee But Hello If Miley Gonna Play The Role Well The Movie Is Gonna Be Boring .. Iam Not Miley’s Hater Nor Fan .. But She Is Not Gonna Play It Serious .. It Will Be A kid’s Movie !!
Like Hannah Montana movie it was so kiddy !
Common .. !!
if taylor swift played the role i guess she is gonna fit in .. and well play it nice cuz taylor looks so innocent like samanthaa was in the book ..
OMG..miley cyrus? I L her..i am an Italian teenager..i have 13 years old..I’m here by accident .. but I could not help but comment on this article..Hannah Montana the movie was nice, but nothing more .. on the contrary, I expect great things from “The Last Song” is a masterpiece .. .. I’m sure!
ps-I esteem you are my idol .. mileyy
hpp new year from Italyyy
Hey I think miley does not fit Sam’s role at all for so many reasons, but I believe ellen page would be perfect for it don’t you think, I now she’s not a non-famous actress cause she’s a terrific one but she would totally be that dark girl Sam is, a rebel. I love ellen page and I also love Sam so I would seriously match them.
Love xoxo
okay guys…
i agree about this(heck,) miley as samantha that seems so…disturbing our ears(so sorry for miley’s fan).i love this book.really like than banana split on my school.i’ve read all meg cabot’s books.like “victoria the rougue”,”the princess diaries series”,and this problem “an all american girl”.i think,miley yeah isn’t the right person to take a part as samantha madison.actually,i feels like sam at all.my life,hobby.we are the middle child from 3 siblings.my mom coerce me to take a part in the drawing class(when actually i can drawing so well).and i think IF i am sam,and not supossed to born as vicky,i think i prefer ellen page,and maybe elle fanning as rebecca,mia wasikowska as lucy.Amy Adams as carol madison.miley so definately looks so not a kind a samantha madison person.you know..hannah montana so enough for making me feels loathing.and it make her so popular as now.pers are miley’s breakfast every morning,and Sam?she hate it!!lets check the other actress to be the cast

I think that’s all what i can do to help you all in this debate.MILEY?i said NO.
Love the series, but the 2nd book would NEVER be allowed as a Disney movie. It’s basically ALL about sex. Anyway, I hate Miley with a passion. I think, like lots of others are saying, that an unknown/undiscovered actress would be much better . As for Lucy…I don’t know if she’s old enough, but Dakota Fanning fits the part pretty well. And David…now THAT I want to see. :) But I’m pretty sure this whole movie thing is just a rumor, anyway, it was fun ranting.
Agree with Saraaaa. And pretty much the majority of every non-Miley fans. I am madly in love with this book (and the sequel) and have read it so many times I’ve lost count. I would probably die if she was allowed to play this role. She could never pull off the role of Sam. I hope you all will support me if I want to start a riot if she is given the part. That’s all I have to say. And Saraaaa, Dakota Fanning would be absolutely perfect as Lucy.
[...] First of all, let’s just get the latest rumor out of the way: Miley Cyrus is not starring in a Disney-made movie version of my book All American Girl. [...]
miley cyrus….the all american girl…. this the one that posed nude on a magazine when she was 15, right? that’s america? and disney wants her? yeah, let’s all re-think that together, shall we?
