Not too much action today as Sleepy Hollow and Secrets and Lies are both shooting on the sound stages today and The Longest Ride is still in Jacksonville shooting their bull riding scenes.
Benjamin Ciaramello of Friday Night Lights fame has joined the cast of Secrets and Lies. According to Deadline he is playing Paul Murphy, the young victim Tom’s father, who’s “currently in the military and about to be deployed for the fifth time. He’s constantly battling inner demons resulting from extended periods in warring countries.” Welcome to Wilmywood Ben!
