‘Miracles from Heaven’ Now Hiring Stand-ins in Atlanta, Georgia.
According to The Hollywood Reporter, ‘Heaven is For Real’ producers are now working on the latest Christian family movie, ‘Miracles from Heaven’.
The project is an adaptation of Three Miracles From Heaven: A Sick Little Girl, Her Journey to Heaven, and the Lives Forever Changed, an upcoming book byChristy Beam; Randy Brown, who wrote Clint Eastwood‘s Trouble With the Curve, is on board to write the script.
T.D. Jakes and Joe Roth, who produced Heaven Is for Real, are producing along with DeVon Franklin, the preacher and former Sony exec who is now a producer based on the studio’s Culver City lot. Franklin was instrumental in bringing in the book in proposal form, and the acquisition is a vote of confidence in the newly minted producer. [via]
According to the Christian Post, the movie is based on a true story about Christy Beam’s daughter who miraculously overcame a rare disorder that forced her to eat with tubes and carry colostomy bags instead of using regular bathrooms. After Beam’s daughter fell three stories, the book reveals the young girl visited heaven and was later cured of her rare condition.’

The offense occurred ten years prior to the start of the series, and in that time Piper had moved on to a quiet, law-abiding life among New York’s upper middle class.

MY PARENT IS IN PORN
Sex is big business. But is it your family business? Do you have a parent who works in porn? Do they perform or produce adult films? Or do you have a parent who makes a living designing, manufacturing or selling sexy toys or other adult products and related goods and services. We are interested in hearing how your life is shaped by the career choice of your parent. Perhaps you accept and support what they do to pay the bills…or maybe it’s made your life harder and you wish your parents had a more conventional line of work. Will you follow in their footsteps? Either way, we want to help you tell your story!
CALLING ALL TWINS
Are you a twin who’s tired of being a package deal? You know you’re an individual with your own thoughts and opinions but being a twin, does it seem like no one else knows that? Have you finally gotten to a place in your life where you’re considering making a big change, like moving away from your twin for the first time…or even making a drastic physical change, just to differentiate and claim your individuality once and for all? Or are you and your twin actually opposites in every way other than looks? Do they get on your last nerve? Have they done something so bad you just can’t forgive them? If you’re considering drastic measures to distinguish, separate, or distance yourself from your twin, we look forward to hearing your side of the story!
I’M NOT SURE WHOSE BABY I’M CARRYING/ARE YOU MY BABY DADDY?
No matter what your circumstance, getting pregnant can have a huge impact on your life. But if you’re not sure who the father is, it can make a tricky situation even more difficult to handle. Things happen, relationships have highs and lows. And sometimes circumstances mean you may not be 100-percent sure who the father of your child is. Are you pregnant with or raising a child with questions of who their father is? Or maybe you know who the father is and he won’t step up. Now you want to prove it once and for all.
Or are you a man who is convinced you’re the father of a child but for whatever reason, the child’s mother won’t admit the child is yours? Are you a man raising a child you’ve been told is yours but you’re starting to have doubts? You may love the child, but you need to know. If you are pregnant, or have recently had a child, and are questioning the baby’s biological father, or you’re a father who’s not sure if the baby is yours, we want to hear your story.
I’M DATING / MARRYING MY COUSIN
They say you can’t help who you love. So what do you do when the person you’ve fallen in love with happens to be your own cousin? People talk about supporting the right to love and marry whoever they want…but despite all that talk, do you still feel like you and your cousin have to hide your feelings for each other? Are you afraid of being judged? In many cultures it’s common, and it’s even perfectly legal in some states…so why do you have to live in shame? Love is complicated and the love you’ve found may not be “acceptable” by some people’s standards. But it’s time to speak out and be heard. Are you in love with your cousin? Are you married, engaged, or thinking about getting engaged? Let your love be stronger than their judgment. This is your chance to help the world understand, and we want to hear your story. I’M INSTA-RICH
One minute you were short on cash. The next minute you’re rolling in dough. Are you someone who came into a lot of money VERY quickly? Maybe you worked your butt off to build a business that finally blew up over night? Maybe you designed a killer app and have gone from struggling student to wealthy business owner. Maybe an unexpected inheritance, hit song, popular YouTube channel, or just dumb luck has completely changed your situation. If you are young and Insta-Rich, we want to hear from you! I’M ENGAGED TO A STRANGER
Are you engaged to someone you haven’t actually met in person yet? We know love is powerful and nowadays some of our strongest relationships can start and flourish online. Did you meet on Twitch, flirt on Snapchat, date on Skype and get engaged on Instagram? Are you already talking wedding dates, but you just haven’t met face to face yet? Or maybe the situation is much more “old school” and you’re getting into an arranged marriage. Mom and Dad know what’s best (or not) and you’re putting your love life in their hands. Or has a prison pen pal captured your heart and you’re just counting the days to their release so you can finally get married? Are you about to make a forever promise to someone you have never met in person? People do it every day, and we want to hear all about your story!
I’M A PERSONAL ASSISTANT TO THE STARS
You’re a personal assistant. Now that may not sound very exciting to most people at first, but that’s because they have no idea your boss is a famous actor, recording artist, pro athlete or huge celebrity. Sure you still have to do the day to day stuff, answer calls, walk the dog, make coffee…but when you’re boss is a baller you get access and fringe benefits that would drop jaws. You get to see a side of celebrities that most never do. You see the real person. Behind every great star is a great assistant keeping all the chaos in check. You know that you have a job that most would dream of, and we want to hear all about it!
BECOMING A NEW PERSON:
Are you currently going through, about to experience, or have you recently gone through a change in your life so significant that it changes everything? You’re a new person, and we want to know the new you.
MY DREAM IS AFFECTING MY FAMILY:
Some people are lucky enough to have a calling in life, and for you that calling isn’t an easy path to tread; it requires sacrifice, but not just for you, but for others in your life as well. Is your passion, dream, path, or mission a burden on your family? Is your ambition to become an Olympian, a world-class competitor, a master craftsperson, or an entrepreneur having a financial or emotional impact on your family? Tell us about your dream and the effect realizing it is having on your family.
I’M DATING WITH HIV:
You’re HIV positive, but you won’t let that stop you from having a rich and fulfilling life. Are you romantically involved with someone or currently seeking a serious romantic partner? You love yourself and you’re either already sharing that love with someone else, or looking for someone to share it with who can see past your status. We want you to share your experience, and help us de-stigmatize the experience of dating with HIV by telling your story.
I’M SETTING A WORLD RECORD:
There’s at least one thing that you are literally the best in the world, or on your way to being the best in the world, at doing; and we want to know about your journey to prove it. If you have the daring, the fortitude, the adventurous spirit, and the talent to take on the challenge that defines your life – whether it’s something that takes you around the world, or something you’re doing just down the block at the gym– we want to hear about your adventure, your progress, and your achievement.

William Hurt opens up about the ‘Midnight Rider’ accident that killed Sarah Jones.
William Hurt was playing Gregg Allman in Randall MIller’s ‘Night Rider’, shooting a dream sequence on a bed atop some train tracks on a bridge, minutes before a train crashed through the set, killing 27-year-old camera assistant Sarah Jones. Miller was eventually sentenced to two years in jail over the incident, the first time criminal charges had been brought over an on-set accident since Vic Morrow’s death in a helicopter accident on the Twilight Zone movie 30 years ago.
This week, in an interview with Canada’s Global News, Hurt talked about the tragic accident that killed Sarah Jones.
“I stopped everything and I said in front of everybody, I said, ‘Stop.’ And I asked (assistant director) Hillary (Schwartz) in front of the whole crowd, ‘Are we safe?’ Because it’s her job as the first AD to tell us that. She said, ‘Yes.’”
Hurt says he asked whether there was a spotter to alert them to oncoming trains and how much time they’d have to get out of the way. He says he was told, “Sixty seconds.”
“And I said in front of everybody, ‘Sixty seconds is not enough time to get these people and this equipment off this bridge. There’s just no way.’ And then I looked around, thinking that the rest of the crew, who had all worked with her before … would say something. And they didn’t. They just started shambling back to work. And I thought, ‘Well that’s their vote. They trust her.’ So we went to work.”
Hurt says he lay down on a bed that had been placed perpendicular to the tracks. Then he heard Schwartz say a train was coming.
“I was barefoot and I turned around, I twisted my head and I said, ‘Someone’s going to die now,’” he recalls.
“I tried to yank the bed up, my feet were getting clobbered by the splinters in the ties. I couldn’t move the bed at all, I just started screaming ‘You can’t stop it, you can’t stop it, you can’t stop it, you can’t stop it.’ And I picked my way across the ties, trying not to fall to impede people climbing over me who were trying to escape, too.
“And then I got into the rocks which were razor sharp and I turned and I’m going, ‘Oh, Jesus God.’ I’m looking at them, I was only a few feet away from the train and I saw them, I felt the wind buffered and I just covered my eyes and started screaming ‘No, no, no, no, no, no.’” [Globalnews.Ca]
That’s pretty horrible. At the end of the day, don’t risk your lives for your jobs. If something feels wrong, stop watch you’re doing and run.

How Marvel used Instagram to cast the new Spider-Man, Tom Holland.
Sony and Marvel have finally discovered their new Peter Park and Spider-Man but, months before Tom Holland was ever picked to replace Andrew Garfield, the actor was auditioning via Instagram.
The casting calls for “Spider-Man” is over, with 19-year-old Tom Holland winning the role of Marvel’s biggest superhero and it looks like the young actor may have used Instagram to land the role.
Tom Holland beat the likes of Nat Wolff, Asa Butterfield, Timothee Chalamet and Liam James for the role of Peter Parker/Spider-Man.
But, what landed Holland the role probably comes down to the impressive amateur stunt kills he has acquired over the past few months. Tom Holland’s Instagram is filled with crazy flips, jumps, Parkour-level street tricks and action soccer kicks.
“For Spidey himself, we saw many terrific young actors, but Tom’s screen tests were special. All in all, we are off to a roaring start.” saidTom Rothman, Sony Pictures Motion Pictures Group Chairman, upon announcement.
It is urmored that Tom Holland will appear as Spider-Man in the new upcoming ‘Captain America: Civil War’ movie which is currently filming in Atlanta, Georgia.
Check out Tom Holland movies for an idea of what we can expect from the new Spider-Man.

Screech has been sentenced to four months in jail and probation after his wild night filled with shenanigans and stabbings.
38-year-old Dustin “Screech” Diamond has been sentenced to four months in jail after he was found guilty of carrying a concealed weapon and disorderly conduct over his part in a Christmas Day bar brawl in Wisconsin.
Judge Paul Malloy also sentenced Diamond to 15 months’ probation and ordered him to report to jail Sunday. Diamond was convicted earlier this month on two misdemeanor counts that stemmed from a Christmas Day barroom fight.
Diamond, appearing misty-eyed, left the courtroom without commenting. [AssociatedPress]
The whole situation started from an incident where Screech claimed he pulled the knife to protect his girlfriend from a mob of wild-eyed Screech fans, while witnesses testified that it was actually his girlfriend who initiated the fight. Schutz was convicted of disorderly conduct and fined $500.
Other witnesses told the court the incident began when Schutz pushed a woman at the bar and grabbed another woman’s hand. [BBC]
Diamond’s testimony veered widely from the story presented by the prosecution’s nine witnesses, most of whom were cousins of 25-year-old Casey Smet, who suffered a minor stab wound during the altercation.
While the prosecution’s witnesses described Diamond and his fiancee, Amanda Schutz, as aggressors who were uninterested in the apology of Smet’s girlfriend after she accidentally bumped into them at the bar, Diamond said the bumping was intentional and repeated.
The group of cousins was trying to take pictures of him because they recognized him from television, he said. Diamond is best known for his role as the character Screech in the 90s sitcom Saved by the Bell.
When he and Schutz stood up to leave the bar, Diamond testified, the group swarmed to block their way and began violently attacking Schutz.
Diamond said he heard multiple “impact sounds” as the cousins hit his fiancee.
“I saw a tall guy holding her arms back, as if to keep her from defending herself,” he said. “As she had her arms being held back, she was being struck.”
He also said he witnessed someone choking Schutz.
We wish Screech luck on being able to rehabilitate himself in jail, and hopefully revitalize his acting career.

Disney is currently working on a new movie about evolution.
According to Deadline, Disney — the company behind movies about talking animals, flying children, and pirates-is now developing a movie about Charles Darwin, the man who discovered the theory of evolution.
Charles Darwin was an English geologist and naturalist, best known for his contributions to the theory of evolution. He established that all species of life have descened over time from common ancenstors, and in a joint publication with Alfred Russel Wallace introduced his scientific theory that his pattern of evolution resulted from the process of natural selection, in which the struggle for existence is just as similar as artificial selection seen in selective breeding.

This train of thought goes completely against Christianity and the theory of Creationism. Creationism is the belief that the Universe and Life originate “from specific acts of divine creation and not evolution.
Traffic writer Stephen Gaghan will be writing and directing, and though Deadline doesn’t have any specific details about the project, it does say it’ll be “an adventure film.”
Deadline also reports that Darwin “had a bit of that Indiana Jones-like swashbuckling spirit in him,” so if Disney takes that angle it might help make this movie a little more desirable to the people who don’t agree with Darwin’s life’s work.
With Chris Pratt’s recent blockbuster success, I would not be surprised of Disney producers choose Chris Pratt to play Charles Darwin. However, the whole evolution debate may back fire in Disney’s face.

‘Indignation’ Casting Call for College Students in New York City.
Central Casting New York is looking for extras to play to college students for the upcoming feature film, ‘Indignation’.
‘Indignation’ centers around Marcus Messner, a working-class Jewish student from New Jersey, attends a small Ohio college, where he struggles with anti-Semitism, sexual repression, and the ongoing Korean War.
The upcoming movie is based on Philip Roth’s 2008 novel “Indignation” and will be directed by former Focus Cheif, James Schamus.
Schamus co-founded Focus and ran the label until 2013, when he was pushed out by parent company Universal Pictures in favor of Peter Schlessel. The former FilmDistrict chief was tasked with charting a more commercial path for Focus, which under Schamus produced such films as “The Kids Are All Right,” “Brokeback Mountain,” “Lost in Translation” and “Milk.”
