I'm in a movie!


Well....I'm an extra, a nurse to be exact. But I will be on film!

I'm pretty excited. This was just sort of a spur-of-the-moment, what the heck, why not decisions. The name of the film is Love and Other Drugs, directed by Edward Zwick. It stars Anne Hathaway and Jake Gyllenhaal. Its due to come out sometime in 2010.
The three scenes I was cast for only have Jake in them.


It was such a fun and exciting experience! I am a huge movie person. So to actually be behind the scenes watching the directors, crew, actors, etc. at work was so exciting for me. Jake Gyllenhaal is even better looking in person than I thought (haha!) I've seen most of his movies and he has always been one of my favorite actors to watch. So to see him, and work with him (even if for only a few minutes of film time) was a once in a lifetime opportunity.
I'm not sure when it will be in theaters, but when I know I will post an update! And I'll describe my scenes and what I was wearing so everyone can look for me!

There are two other movies also filming around now here in the wonderful city of Pittsburgh. One with Russell Crowe and another with Denzel Washington. Read this article to learn more!
PS. in the first scene I did, Jake puts his arm around my right shoulder! I hope they don't cut it out lol. :-)
