Hayden Panettiere: I Love You, Beth Cooper

No, Hayden Panettiere has not moved on from her Heroes costar (and boyfriend) Milo Ventimiglia to “Beth Cooper.”

The 18-year-old actress is set to star in a new film called I Love You, Beth Cooper, a teen comedy that’s going to be produced by Chris Columbus (Rent, Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets).

Hayden will play the titular character, a hot cheerleader (typecasting!) who is the object of a nerdy valedictorian’s obsession. The pair embark on a series of misadventures after he proclaims his love for her in his graduation speech.

Later this year, Panettiere can be seen in the drama Fireflies in the Garden, starring Julia Roberts.

I read the book. Yes, she’s a cheerleader, but it’s not really a “cheerleader role”. The story starts at the END of High School so she doesn’t really do any legitimate cheering and that whole High School attitude is over. This was one of my favorite books and I’m curious to see if Hayden does Beth Cooper justice.

OMG I love her. And I loved this book. It was hilarious and incredibly well written.

I’m so excited for this, but I do think that she should do some roles that don’t involve cheer leading… Unlike Heroes, Bring It On: All or Nothing, I Love You Beth Cooper…

But, I still love her.
