Chace Crawford will take the role of Ren McCormack in the film, they now show an interest in Miley to lead the role of the preacher's daughter. "They've expressed interest in Miley for the part," a source close to the tween queen informed E! Online.

Hayden Panettiere,
Amanda Bynes and "Dancing with the Stars"
