Tina Connolly's "Seriously Wicked"

Tina Connolly is the author of the Ironskin trilogy from Tor Books, and the Seriously Wicked series, from Tor Teen. Ironskin, her first fantasy novel, was a Nebula finalist.

Here she dreamcasts an adaptation of Seriously Wicked:

I happen to think that Seriously Wicked would make the most delightful movie (along the lines of one of my old favorites, Teen Witch.) I can also easily imagine it as a funny TV series with new adventures in stopping megalomaniac witch Sarmine every week.

My heroine Cam! - I need someone who can believably go around stopping wicked witches and saving boys from demons, with a healthy sense of irony while doing it. I think Kiernan Shipka has been doing some really interesting work and might be fun.

Cute boy-band boy Devon – Okay, if I were casting this ten years ago I’d go with Zac Efron, for a great triple threat of acting/singing/comedian-ing. The demon takes over his body, so it would be a fun role for an actor. He’d get to flip back and forth between sweet boy-band boy Devon, and the ultra-cold-hearted demon who occasionally likes to imitate Elvis! And then, of course, he sings a rock song to Cam....

Ultra-chic BFF Jenah – Jenah is Chinese-American, super-cool, and obsessed with dragons. Chinese-Dutch-Canadian Kristin Kreuk is probably no longer playing teens, but I always liked her work.

Top girl in school Sparkle – Rila Fukushima, who was super fun in Wolverine, would be fun as this stone-cold head girl with some secret layers to her.

Wicked Witch Sarmine – This one I totally know. I generally imagine her as Meryl Streep from The Devil Wears Prada, right down to that haircut.
