Sam, meanwhile, has been living in the winter in the frozen woods to protect the song and be a silent companion to a fearless girl. In the summer, however, he can enjoy the precious months in which he is a human being.
Grace, one day, meets a boy who seems known to her and is convinced that he is her wolf. As winter approaches, Sam must fight to remain human as he risks losing himself, and Grace, forever.

Currently, a screenwriter has not yet been chosen to take on the project, but Fickman will also be involved as a producer.
The director stated: “From the first page of Maggie Stiefvater’s novel, I was transported to a vivid, magical, romantic world that I immediately wanted to bring to life. These multidimensional characters are connected to the daily joys and terrors of high school, they live in a reality between fantasy and reality, they love beyond those boundaries and they do it without limits. I am thrilled to bring this incredible story of forbidden love to the screen alongside a fresh layer of Minnesota snow“.
