Working titles "Mule Boy" and "Jackie A."
Shooting: August 2008
| <...> Kevin Sorbo just left town after wrapping the Dallas filming of their latest film. "This is the fourth film that Kevin and I have done together, in addition to Walking Tall: The Payback, Walking Tall: Lone Justice and Fire From Below, all shot in the Dallas area," says producer and director Andrew Stevens. "The working title of the film has been Mule Boy. Obviously we'll come up with a better title. It's about a boy and a talking mule who enter an open ranch class competition at a stock show and triumph over older kids on horses. Kevin plays the comedic foil, a wealthy land developer trying to foreclose on the boy's farm." Except for Kevin Sorbo and Siri Baruc, the actress playing the boy's mom, all cast and crew are from the Dallas area. (15.08.08 The Dallas Morning News) |
