According to a recent interview with Jessica Latham, one of the producers of Aly’s upcoming movie “Sequoia”, Jessica revealed that the movie will soon be hitting the festival circuit! How exciting! So happy for Aly! I’m sure this will be great! Check out part of the interview below that mentions the movie!
Her next project, on which she served as executive producer, is a feature-length film called “Sequoia.”
“It’s ‘Little Miss Sunshine’ meets ‘Juno,’” Latham said. “The lead character, the female, is a really whipsmart, Juno-esque girl … and her crazy, dysfunctional family goes on a road trip to chase after her.”
The film, which includes Amarillo oral surgeon Dr. William Graves on its production team, is in post-production now and will soon hit the festival circuit. It stars Aly Michalka of the pop duo Aly & AJ, Dustin Milligan (“90210”), Joey Lauren Adams (“Chasing Amy”) and, in a small part, Lou Diamond Phillips.
Latham said she’s found her calling in film production.
“It complements my skill set,” she said. “I’m a really good organizer of people, and that’s kind of what it’s all about, finding projects and talent, and once you find those special projects, attaching all the right people to it to make it happen.”
