Jodi Picoult Has Admitted That “My Sister’s Keeper” Being Turned Into A Movie Was “A Really Terrible Experience” As She Reflected On The Director’s Controversial Decision To Change The Ending


Jodi previously said that she was “really upset” by director Nick Cassavetes’s decision to change the story’s ending, but was thrown off the movie’s set when she voiced her concerns.

“The director, who was also the writer of the script, told me he was going to keep the ending because that was, honestly, what made most of you throw the book at someone else and say: ‘You gotta read this,’” Jodi explained. “Then I found out through a casting director that he actually changed the ending of the script that he’d shown me, and it did not match the one in the book.” “I went to the production company, and I said: ‘You’re making a really big mistake, I have a lot of readers who loved the ending of this book,’ they said: ‘We really trust him, we think he knows what he’s doing.’”
