Contrary to popular belief, The Hunger Games isn’t the ONLY young-adult adaptation due to come out of Hollywood (though, arguably it’s the biggest YA project hitting theaters in the immediate future). 
 
Next February, Mean Girls director Mark Waters plans to unleash a feature-length version of Richelle Mead’s Vampire Academy, with Zoey Deutch, Danila Kozlovsky and Lucy Fry in the lead roles. We’ve seen a few marketing materials tied to the film already. The latest trailer arrived this morning, and we have it for you below: 
 

 
Is Vampire Academy in line to become the next Hunger Games, the next Twilight? It’s certainly possible, though that road is littered with far more examples of The Host and Mortal Instruments – movies that tried to tap into the spend-happy YA audience but whiffed (for whatever reason). 
 
Waters’ film will adapt the first novel from author Mead’s six-book YA novel series that was first published in 2007. Rose (Deutch) is a “Guardian” in training, who returns with her best friend Lissa Draagomir (Lucy Fry) to St. Vladimir’s Academy after running away two years prior. Though Dimitri (Kozlovsky) is assigned to be Lissa’s personal guardian, his deep feelings for Rose puts all of their relationships in jeopardy.
 
Waters is a proven name, having also directed The Spiderwick Chronicles and the 2003 take on Freaky Friday. But his cast is fresh faced and up-and-coming (Deutch was in Beautiful Creatures), so this film can make or break their young careers. 
 
Vampire Academy opens on February 14, 2014. Happy Valentine’s Day, fans!
