New $30 mil movie to be shot in Texas
Los Angeles-based Entertainment 7 announced this week in Cannes that it will be shooting a $30 million action epic called “Waco” in Texas, starting Aug. 9.
The film will be directed by Rupert Wainwright and produced through A Plus Productions. Emilio Ferrari and Lee Nelson will be the producers.
Details on the story of the film were sketchy, as were the shooting locations. Entertainment 7’s most recent production was “Baby on Board” with John Corbett, Heather Graham and Jerry O’Connell.
If the Texas Film Commission has more details, please alert Chris Garcia at the Statesman.
Editor’s note: “Waco” screenwriter James Hibberd is a UT grad and a former entertainment writer at the Austin American-Statesman. He now writes about TV for The Hollywood Reporter.
