Beautiful Creatures

Yes, the 2013 film is based on the first book of the "Caster Chronicles" young adult series written by Kami Garcia and Margaret Stohl. The movie adaptation stars Alden Ehrenreich and Alice Englert. Due to the film's poor box office performance, sequels adapting the remaining books were never produced.

The film features an ensemble cast including Alden Ehrenreich as Ethan Wate and Alice Englert as Lena Duchannes. It also stars heavyweights like Viola Davis, Jeremy Irons, and Emma Thompson. Richard LaGravenese both wrote the screenplay and directed the movie.

The film follows teenager Ethan Wate, who falls in love with a mysterious new girl in his Southern town named Lena Duchannes. He soon discovers that Lena is a "Caster," a magical being whose powers will be claimed by either the light or dark on her 16th birthday. Their romance is threatened by the magical curses surrounding her family.

No, a sequel was never made because the 2013 film underperformed commercially at the box office. It only grossed around $60 million worldwide against a production budget of roughly $60 million. Because it was intended to launch a franchise adapting the four-book series, the movie ends on an open note.
