Yet another movie adaptation of a YA book will be the big screen version of  Daniel Water's BREAK MY HEART 1,000 TIMES which is going to star Hailee Steinfeld in the lead role.

After years of quiet coexistence with the living, a Remnant sends a threatening message to a young girl, propelling her on a mission with consequences that will forever change the course of her life. Scott Speer (STEP UP REVOLUTION) is directing!
