Blake Lively (Gossip Girl, Savages) will star alongside Oscar winner Ellen Burstyn (Requiem for a Dream, The Exorcist) in the long-delayed supernatural romance The Age of Adaline. Lively will star as a "a young woman born at the turn of the 20th century who is rendered ageless after an accident. She embarks on an epic, but isolated worldwide journey, keeping her secret, until she meets a man who forever alters her life."

The film will be directed by Lee Toland Krieger (Celeste & Jesse Forever) from a script by J. Mills Goodloe and Salvador Paskowitz. Previously, Gabriele Muccino (The Pursuit of Happyness) and Andy Tennant (Hitch) were attached to direct in 2011 and 2010, respectively. In 2010, Katherine Heigl (Grey's Anatomy) was attached to star in the lead role.

Lakeshore CEO Tom Rosenberg has said of Lively and Burstyn that "They’re extraordinarily talented and perfect for telling the beautiful and timeless tale of The Age Of Adaline". Blake Lively's last big screen role was in Oliver Stone's crime thriller Savages. Ellen Burstyn can also be seen in two new films next year, Christopher Nolan's Interstellar and Ghostbusters director Ivan Reitman's sports drama Draft Day.
