Cara Delevingne has some MAJORLY exciting news to share!
UK model Cara Delevingne seems to be everywhere at the moment and it looks like she’s only getting bigger!
Last week the actress spoke about her small role in The Face of An Angel, based on the story of Amanda Knox. Now though, she’s been announced as the lead in what is set to be a huge film for 2015. She’ll be playing the role of Margo in Paper Towns, based on the book by John Green – author of the young adult favourite, The Fault In Our Stars.
The Fault In Our Stars made huge waves at the box office when the film adaptation was released earlier this year, and we bet Paper Towns will be no different. Exciting!
The plot of the book centres on Cara’s character, who runs away from home, leaving clues behind to lead her lovesick friend Quentin to her hiding place. Nat Wolff, who played Isaac in The Fault In Our Stars, will play the besotted Quentin.
Author John Green tweeted his excitement at the casting news earlier today:
Cara Delevigne's audition blew everyone away (including me!) and she understands Margo profoundly. I am so excited!

“@jakeschreier: @realjohngreen @Caradelevingne seconded. It was something special.” Thank you so much guys!! I am so excited! Ahhhh! X

Cara has had a few breakout roles so far – she starred in the 2012 adaptation of Anna Karenina, and next year she will appear alongside Hugh Jackman and Amanda Seyfried in Pan. And that's all on top of strutting the catwalk for Chanel and being the face of both Topshop and Burberry. Talk about a high achiever!
