Ashley Judd to Star in YA Drama Film #FBF
Ashley Judd (Double Jeopardy, Where the Heart is) has been cast in a new YA drama titled #FBF. The film is following the format of films like Searching with John Cho, which allowed the actors to be filmed in their homes in Los Angeles, Nashville, Anaheim, New York and other remote locations amid the pandemic.
#FBF follows teenager Annie (Cree Cicchino), who accidentally takes her mom’s (Judd) laptop instead of her own to visit her father in New Jersey. Annie soon realizes the laptop is everything she needs to pose as her mom for the day, repair her parents’ marriage, and encourage them to move back from Florida.
Ilyssa Goodman (A Cinderella Story) is directing the film from a screenplay that she co-wrote with Ashley Peter (The Morning Show). The cast also includes Kylee Russell (Z-O-M-B-I-E-S), Emily Skinner (Andi Mack), Ciara Riley Wilson (Kim Possible), David Barerra (Generation Kill), and Maria Canals-Barerra (Wizards of Waverly Place).
