Dark secrets will come to light.

In Gatlin, a small town in South Carolina, Ethan Wate often wakes up from a recurring dream about a girl he has never met. He despairs of living in such a small place and dreams of leaving it behind to go to college. Ethan feels his future is trapped on the same familiar streets, and the town's routines weigh on him more every day. His first day of junior year brings news: a newcomer, Lena Duchannes, looks like the girl from his dreams. Richard LaGravenese directs the film, and Alden Ehrenreich plays Ethan while Alice Englert takes on the role of Lena.

Trivia about Beautiful Creatures

Camille Balsamo played Genevieve Katherine Duchannes in a sequence that was ultimately cut from the film, according to the production profile.

The soundtrack was defined with the term "swamptronic," coined by Richard LaGravenese, and was recorded at Abbey Road. Its musical style got its name from the director.

Dhanni Harrison, son of George Harrison, used some of his father's guitars and equipment to record the film's soundtrack.

Variety included the film in its list of "Hollywood's biggest box office bombs of 2013," with worldwide gross of 60,052,138 dollars.

The box office failure led to the cancellation of plans to adapt the next three books in the Caster Chronicles series to film.

The Thanksgiving dinner scene was shot over three days on a hydraulic set, with the table and floor rotating in opposite directions. Richard LaGravenese took Dramamine because he suffered from dizziness.

Alice Englert wrote and recorded the song "Needle and Thread" in her New Orleans hotel room. It appears during the film's snow sequence.

Jack O'Connell was initially announced to play Ethan Wate, but he left the project due to a scheduling conflict, and Alden Ehrenreich ultimately took on the role.
