Taylor Swift has been cast in The Giver.

An adaptation of the beloved Lois Lowry book is finally coming to the big screen, with Brenton Thwaites as Jonas, who lives in a dystopian world and meets The Giver, portrayed by Jeff Bridges.

The news was announced by The Weinstein Company on Friday.

Swift will portray Rosemary, the last teen mentored by The Giver before he takes on Jonas.

Meryl Streep will star as Chief Elder, with Alexander Skarsgard and Katie Holmes as Jonas’ parents.

Production is slated to begin in South Africa next month, with a release date less than a year from now — in August 2014.

Taylor Swift is “infatuated” with Australian actor Brenton Thwaites, reports OK!

The tabloid claims the singer has fallen “head over heels” for Thwaites after meeting him at the Toronto International Film Festival on September 9.

Um… that was just nine days ago.

Still, a supposed “source” tells the mag, “They’ve been hanging out a lot lately, and Taylor won’t stop talking about Brenton.”

Really?

Not. At. All.

Swift and Thwaites met once, and only posed for a picture together because a photographer asked them to.

The dating rumors are totally “fake,” a source close to the pop star tells Gossip Cop.
