What a lovely surprise! Amy’s role in upcoming movie Sironia, is in fact, the lead, and not a small part as I’d been led to believe — as confirmed by the Official Website — which also contains a wealth of information, including production stills & a trailer, of which screencaptures have been added to the gallery; links & previews are below, enjoy!

There’s an article at HollywoodNews.com which briefly mentions that Sironia is one of the films selected to appear at this year’s Austin Film Festival in the ‘Texas Independents’ category — Amy has a small role in this film. The official website for the AFF states that it will be the world premiere & there’s a synopsis available; posted below.

Real life singer-songwriter and co-writer Wes Cunningham portrays Thomas, a man who has been chewed up and spit out by the Hollywood music machine. A once ambitious musician, he impulsively moves with his pregnant wife to a small town called Sironia, Texas in search of authenticity and purpose in his life. While there, he gladly joins the ranks of the locals including his brother-in-law and Texas socialite sister-in-law. As time passes, he grows more and more frustrated with his life, sinking further and further into failure. Denying the help from the people of Sironia, including his close friends and loving family, he slips into alcoholism and despair only to be saved by his own music.

The AFF opens on October 20, 2011. Hopefully, Amy shall make an appearance!

Good news! Amy has confirmed that she has indeed been filming Sironia lately, and according to her latest tweet, filming has now wrapped.

I’m super excited for this little movie & shall be sure to keep you guys up-to-date on any further developments!

Just a heads up that the official website for Sironia is now online, although at the moment, it only contains a lovely poster — which I’ve since added to the gallery.

I’ve also added the behind-the-scenes photo that Amy posted on her official Twitter — where, coincidentally, Amy confirms that she was staying in Waco, Texas, with her latest tweet. A preview is to your right & the gallery links are below, enjoy!

A search has thrown up a few articles regarding this new movie — it is an indie film written & directed by Brandon Dickerson with Robyn Lively and Tony Hale as the leads, as confirmed by THR. This suggests that Amy has a small(ish) role in this movie, but exciting nevertheless!

There’s also an interesting article from a local paper, Wacotrib.com which offers some back story on the film and states that filming shall move to Los Angeles from May 19; the full article is under the cut.

Exciting news! It looks like Amy may be currently filming a new project — I did wonder since Amy has posted on her official Twitter that she’s in Texas (from April 30) as well as a lovely pic with Tony Hale & the tweet regarding a night shoot.

Also, IMDB has the project listed on Amy’s resume, albeit rumoured, and offers the following synopsis:

A singer-songwriter beat up by the L.A. music machine who moves with his wife to Sironia, Texas.

So, for now, I shall add this project to the sidebar & hopefully we’ll have further confirmation and/or information regarding this project later on.
