Sparks' "Longest Ride" Film Revs Up

"The Twilight Saga" producers Marty Bowen and Wyck Godfrey are set to produce an adaptation of author Nicholas Sparks' latest novel "The Longest Ride" says THR.

Craig Bolotin ("Black Rain," "Straight Talk") will write the adapted screenplay.

The book has two storylines that ultimately come together. The first involves an elderly man trapped in a car accident. While fighting to remain conscious, he sees visions of his deceased wife and their life together. The second follows a high school senior who meets a young bull rider with a secret. 

The book hits stores next month.
