I read this was in production last month but more actors have signed on now. Interesting!
ReplyDeleteI like all of the actors listed so I may have to check this out.... Plus as it turns out I am related to BOTH the Hatfields and the McCoys through different sides of my family. XD
Wonder if that's why I often feel conflicted on issues?
Jena Malone sure is purty.
ReplyDeleteIndeed, And the best part of her beauty is it's all her own - she's so unique and unlike most of the other starlets of her age group.
ReplyDeletethanks :D
