The next round of extras is announced for the Christmas-themed feature film THE ONE, set to resume filming next week after being off for the holidays. Filming will be in Enid, OK.
THE ONE is an inspirational Holiday film about Hawk, a Native American foster teen who ages out of the system and uses his train ticket out of Chicago to see the lighting of the tallest Christmas Tree in the United States. While Hawk is playing his guitar on the tracks, he runs into runaway teen, Alexis, who is grieving the loss of her twin sister. The two reminisce about Hawk’s Foster life, discuss the existence of God, and dodge her family who is frantically searching for her. The film is strewn with surprise comedic characters and twists and turns that will not only open eyes to the plight of the Foster system, but also remind us that it is never too late…whatever that may mean for you.
The film stars Martin Sheen (The West Wing, Grace & Frankie, Apocalypse Now, Badlands), Jana Kramer, Nick Zano and Noah Redclay.
The film is written by Erin Elizabeth Cook and produced by Cook and Adam Ropp. Lisa Arnold is directing.
Pay for background performers is a guarantee of $125/day for up to 12 hours of filming. Anything over 12 hours will incur overtime.
