Actress Selena Gomez has stepped in to replace Miley Cyrus in the upcoming Sony Pictures Animation project Hotel Transylvania.

Selena Gomez will voice Mavis, the daughter of Adam Sandler's Dracula, in Hotel Transylvania. The news of Miley Cyrus' departure broke earlier this morning, and Adam Sandler's rep confirmed this afternoon that Selena Gomez has signed on. It is said that Miley Cyrus dropped out so she could take more time to figure out her own career path in feature films.

Genndy Tartakovsky is directing Hotel Transylvania from a screenplay by Don Rhymer. The story centers around a resort where famous monsters and creatures of lore can kick back and have a good time. The plot thickens when an ordinary human checks into the hotel, and becomes interested in Mavis. Kevin James, Fran Drescher, David Spade, Steve Buscemi, Molly Shannon, Cee-Lo, Andy Samberg, and David Koechner round out the voice cast.
