Due Date and Made of Honor writer Adam Sztykiel has been hired to pen the sequel We’re the Millers.

Okay, seriously, how cool is Juliette Lewis! Looks like a little character development went down yesterday as she gears up for her role as Angela Cornell in ABC’s Secrets & Lies which begins production in just a few days! Woo Hoo! I am so looking forward to finally meeting her this year.
This came in yesterday, did you see it? Although ABC’s Resurrection is filming in Atlanta, GA, we do have a connection that brings it home to Wilmywood! That connection is Jason Mott, author of the The Returned, the book which the show is based on. Mott is a UNCW grad who lives quietly in Bolton, NC, which is just down the road from Wilmywood in Columbus County. He went from answering the phones as a Verizon employee to becoming a New York Times best-selling author with a hit show on the way! There’s way more to the story and it’s a great article from Pam Kelley over at the Charlotte Observer! READ STORY NOW!
