One fan noted the similarity between ‘Beautiful Creatures’ to the ‘Twilight’ Saga.
.@jlcaviaro both based on YA novels but our movie and books have a lot of comedy (our director started in stand-up) — Emmy Rossum (@emmyrossum) February 12, 2013
.@jlcaviaro Also, the caster chronicles are about female empowerment, and about CLAIMING YOURSELF, no1 dictates who you are gonna be but YOU — Emmy Rossum (@emmyrossum) February 12, 2013
