Alicia Silverstone and Twilight’s Billy Burke have signed up to star in William Carey’s coming of age dramedy Jesus in Cowboy Boots, according to Variety, with Amanda Michalka also set to star.
The film is about a small-town girl (Amanda Michalka) who lives at an abandoned drive-in movie theater along the Texas-Oklahoma border. The story follows the girl and her imaginary friend, The Cowboy (Billy Burke), as they deal with her self absorbed mother (Alicia Silverstone).
William Carey is directing from his own script. Shooting started last week in Texas.
