If one author has put NC and it's beaches and small east coast towns on the map it's Nicolas Sparks. Although all of his books are set in these great and beautiful NC towns not many of his movie spin offs are filmed here. In fact I am pretty sure only one (Nights in Rodanthe) was filmed here until now. A few months ago the latest book turned movie began filming in one of my favorite towns... South Port. While on vacation last week we found out they were going to be shooting a parade scene downtown. The casting director posted on Facebook that everyone was invited. The parade would begin at 11 and we were to wear our best red, white and blue.
Once we realized we had our big break to becoming famous we took the chance and made our way towards downtown, a short drive across the bridge.
Once we arrived we took in the sights of how a movie was made. We even got a glimpse of the leading lady, Julianne Hough. It was neat to see how movies are made but we learned quick that they do take time! We were there for over three hours and they still hadn't got the perfect shot of the crod. Who knows if we will make it on camera but we had fun and can now say we were "in" a movie!
It comes out February 8th! Check it out for our big screen debut!
