Misuse of Playing Against Type (the trope is about actors doing something different than usual and the trope sounded more like... Tropes subverted in general?) Fan Dumb should be moved over to YMMV. Also saw a bunch of Trivia-marked tropes which I have now moved over.

The novel takes place in a fictional rural town in Bergslagen in central Sweden and follows a group of six teenage girls, Minoo Falk Karimi, Rebecka Molin, Anna-Karin Nieminen, Ida Holmström, Vanessa Dahl and Linnéa Wallin. They have little in common until they discover that they all are witches [[TheChosenOne chosen to save the world]] from an [[EldritchAbomination otherworldly evil]]. The authors have cited ''Series/TwinPeaks'', ''Series/BuffyTheVampireSlayer'' and ''{{Series/Supernatural}}'' as some of their main influences. The book was quite a big success in Sweden, being nominated for the prestigious annual literature prize "Agustpriset" in the young adult category. It has been sold in over 20 other countries. A film adaptation was announced but was halted due to [[ExecutiveMeddling conflicts]] between the authors and the production company Filmlance, who wanted to make certain changes to the script that the authors felt uncomfortable about. As of 2013, this has cleared up as Benny Andersson (of Music/{{ABBA}} fame) has stepped in and bought the rights from Filmlance. The film will be directed by Levan Akin, with a script by Levan Akin and Sara Bergmark Elfgren. Filming started in early 2014, and was released in 2015 to largely positive reviews but lack luster box office performance.
