Will Twilight fans show up in Twilight-ish numbers for The Host, the sci-fi love story based on author Stephenie Meyer’s bestselling non-sparkling vampire novel? The film doesn’t have Kristen Stewart, Robert Pattinson, or Taylor Lautner, but it does have a bizarre love story at its core. Hitting theaters on March 29, 2013, The Host stars Saoirse Ronan, Max Irons, Jake Abel, Chandler Canterbury, and William Hurt.
The Plot:
From Stephenie Meyer comes The Host, a love story set in the future, where earth is occupied by a species who erase the minds of their human hosts, leaving their bodies intact. Melanie Stryder (Ronan) is one of the last surviving humans who fights back, risking her life for the people she cares about most — Jared (Irons), Ian (Abel), her brother Jamie (Canterbury), and her Uncle Jeb (Hurt) — proving that love can conquer all.
