Chloe Grace Moretz
Chloe Moretz is set to star in the big screen adaptation of The Fifth Wave.
According to The Wrap, the actress has signed up to take on the central role of Cassie Sullivan, as Rick Yancy's novel is getting the big screen treatment.
When Sony purchased the rights to the story, they included his proposed three-book series, so the actress could also be set for a number of sequels.
While no director is currently attached to the project, Susannah Grant is on board to adapt the book into a screenplay.
The Fifth Wave is a sci-fi thriller, which is set in the aftermath of a series of deadly alien attacks.
The evil extra-terrestrials have left Earth a darkened, doomed place following a number of invasions, and they roam the planet in near-human form picking off survivors.
Cassie Sullivan sets out to rescue her brother and believes the safest way to do so is to travel alone - until she meets the mysterious Evan Walker, who could be her last hope.
2014 is going to be a busy year for Moretz as we are going to see her star in Clouds of Sils Maria, If I Stay, Dark Places, The Equalizer and Laggies.
No release date for The Fifth Wave has been revealed.
