USA Today posted a insightful look into how Nicholas Sparks & Miley partenership for The Last Song.
Nicholas says he "I don't write romance novels." His preferred terminology: "Love stories — it's a very different genre. I would be rejected if I submitted any of my novels as romance novels."
Despite his status, Sparks says he alone was not enough to get the movie made. He told Disney about the story idea, and the studio expressed interest in it as a vehicle for Cyrus — but there were still a lot of maybes. "It was not greenlit from the moment they got me on the project. She had to like it at the end, and Disney had to like it at the end."
"With the book, I've only gotten through part of The Last Song," Cyrus says sheepishly. "Because the movie started first."
Sparks feigns being stricken, but then says: "I don't know if I ever watched a Hannah Montana show. ... Nothing personal. My daughters do every day."
" 'Nothing personal. I just hate her show,' " Cyrus says, laughing and mocking his voice.
