Chloe Moretz Must Make a Fateful Choice in 'If I Stay' Prologue Trailer

With The Fault In Our Stars making theater aisles run wet with tears, another tail of young love marred by a health crisis is on the way. Chloe Moretz stars in If I Stay, based on Gayle Forman's best-selling book that is generally regarded as a cut above the rest of the YA field. So should we go ahead and order up an extra box of Kleenex for this? Sure looks like it.

A new "prologue trailer" (Is this a thing now?) for the film has been released, and it looks like a definite weeper. Moretz stars as Mia Hall, a musical prodigy trying to decide whether to pursue her dreams and attend Juilliard, or pursue a different life with the guy of her dreams. When a terrible accident leaves Mia in a coma, she has an out-of-body experience and must decide whether to soldier on or give up and die. Fun stuff.

Directed by R.J. Cutler with Jamie Blackley, Joshua Leonard, Mireille Enos, Stacy Keach, and Liana Liberato co-starring, If I Stay opens August 22nd.

First Trailer for 'If I Stay' Starring Chloe Moretz

Last year we saw Chloe Moretz break bones in Kick-Ass 2, and burn down an entire neighborhood in Carrie, but for her next film the battle she'll face will be an emotional one. Moretz is starring in If I Stay, an adaptation of Gayle Forman's young adult novel and one of the few that isn't a trilogy set in a post-apocalyptic future.

Directed by RJ Cutler from a Shauna Cross (Whip It) script, the film centers on Mia, a cello prodigy with a bright future ahead of her. She's got a hot new boyfriend in Adam, an indie rocker every girl in town wants; but just as she's being forced to decide between her relationship and her music, a car accident puts her into a coma. Having an out-of-body experience, Mia is forced to decide whether to fight on and make the hard choices ahead of her, or give up and pass on from this life.

Co-starring Mireille Enos and Jamie Blackley, If I Stay opens August 22nd.

Chloe Moretz to star in young adult drama 'If I Stay' directed by R.J. Cutler

Summit Entertainment, those fine folks responsible for inflicting Twilight upon us, have been trying to develop another such adaptation for years now with little success. If I Stay is based on the tween novel by Gayle Forman, and has had Dakota Fanning, Catherine Hardwicke, and Brazilian director Heitor Dhalia attached to it at one point or another. But now it looks like there's finally some real progress, with a new director and a red hot young star taking over the lead.

Variety reports that Chloe Moretz is set to take on the role of Mia, a quiet 17-year old girl with a gift for playing the cello. After an accident puts her in a coma, she has an out-of-body experience where her memories flash before her eyes. Taking over as director is R.J. Cutler, the documentary filmmaker whose latest The World According to Dick Cheney recently premiered at Sundance. The Emmy-winner will be making his narrative feature debut with the film, so it'll be interesting to see what he brings to the table.

Moretz has kind of become the go-to gal for teen supernatural dramas and horrors. She previously starred in vampire flick Let Me In, and has the upcoming Carrie remake. She'll be appearing next as part of the ensemble comedy Movie 43, and later this year she'll be back as Hit-Girl in Kick-Ass 2.
