Well, it may not feel like summer, but the from-away productions choosing Nova Scotia to shoot in are gathering.
For starters, the eighth Jesse Stone CBS TV movie starring Tom Selleck and directed by Robert Harmon went to camera on Friday. It’s called Benefit of the Doubt.
And a Stephen King adaptation Bag of Bones is in prep, a miniseries from Mick Garris, writer/director of the previous King TV adaptations The Shining, The Stand and Desperation. It’s a Sony/Magic Rock production, and is rumoured to be starring the former brat-packer with a memoir on the New York Times bestseller list, Rob Lowe.
This article appears in May 19-25, 2011.
When and where are they going to be shooting bag of bones? I love Stephen King 🙂
A big THANKYOU to Tom Selleck for bringing Jesse Stone production to Halifax eight times!
