Lois Lowry’s classic science fiction tale of an elderly man who holds all the secrets of his community has finally been greenlit, the author has confirmed!

IRON MAN’s Jeff Bridges will play the role of the elderly Giver and casting is underway for the role of 12-year-old Jonas, who is chosen to receive the shocking and disturbing secrets from the Giver. Filming will begin as early as this spring!

Jeff Bridges has been trying to get this movie made for more than twenty years to no avail. He initially wanted his father, legendary actor Lloyd Bridges, to play the title role, but unfortunately, the elder Bridges passed away in 1998. though not nearly as old as the characters he’s going to play, Jeff Bridges is ready to take on the crucial role in a beloved young adult classic.
