A new movie starring Morgan Freeman, Virginia Madsen, and Kenan Thompson, entitled Summer At Dog Dave’s, is set to begin shooting in Greenwood Lake, NY this summer.

The movie follows a disabled author (Freeman) whose drinking is preventing him from being able to write until a new neighbor (Madsen) befriends him and inspires him to start writing again.

Greenwood Lake is located about 50 miles north of New York City on the Appalachian Trail and is a popular destination for weddings, water recreation and hiking.

Rob Reiner will direct the movie which will be shot in Greenwood Lake from July 11 to August 15.

I am so happy to announce that Virginia has a new movie role. She will star opposite Kevin Spacey as his ex-wife Lorainne  in the comedy “Father of Invention.”

The movie will be produced by Trigger Street Prods.’ Spacey and Dana Brunetti plus Jonathan Krane and Ken Barbet. Trent Cooper directs from a script he wrote with Krane and Nichole Beatty. Scott Lumpkin exec produces. Lensing is under way.

“Father of Invention” centers on a humble inventor-turned-egomaniacal billionaire who loses it all when one of his inventions goes horribly awry. After eight years in federal prison, he returns to discover his ex-wife (Virginia’s role) has spent his fortune and remarried.

Camilla Belle, Heather Graham, Craig Robison and Johnny Knoxville also star.

In other news but same topic about roles, Virginia no longer appearing in the movie ‘Amelia’ as Dorothy Binney Putnam. She says her character was left on the cutting room floor plus she really enjoyed filming scenes for the movie and she is ready for her next flick!!
