Jay Self, Savannah’s director of Tourism and Film Services, says the 1980s-era drama is being produced by Onyx Pearl, an Atlanta film production company, and will have a budget of $12 million to $15 million.
He says the film will be directed by Perla Faye Humphrey, director and producer of the films “Unforgiven Sins” and “7 Days a Yellow.” The script is based on a novel by Kimberly Ray.
Production on the Onyx Pearl film is set to start in June. Casting will be conducted in Savannah, Atlanta and Los Angeles.
