‘Looking for Alaska’ by John Green Is Getting a Hulu Series

If you’re a YA fiction lover, we’ve got great news for you.

Looking for Alaska, by John Green, is being adapted into a Hulu series. This is Green’s third young-adult novel to transform from page to screen, following The Fault in Our Stars and Paper Towns.

The story follows teenage Miles Halter, as he moves from Florida to Alabama to attend a prestigious boarding school for his junior year of high school. Miles soon crosses paths with the mysterious, intriguing Alaska, and falls desperately in love with her shortly after.

In the Looking for Alaska @hulu series, Alaska will be played by  Kristine Froseth (kristine_froseth on instagram), and Miles will be played by Charlie Plummer (@charliefplummer here and on instagram–but mostly on instagram).

Both Froseth and Plummer took to Instagram to express their excitement for the upcoming adaptation. We are just as excited for the series as the future Miles and Alaska are.
