New David Duchovny, Demi Moore film to be shot in Atlanta
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution
The story, a social commentary, centers on a picture-perfect family that moves into a suburban neighborhood and immediately becomes the toast of the town, loved and envied by all. But the reality is they are a commissioned fake family put together by a marketing company as a way to introduce new luxury-level products to neighborhoods around the world.
Georgia earlier this year improved its tax breaks to entice production companies to film movies and TV shows here. So far, a few other productions have come here as well. A Lifetime pilot TV show called “Drop Dead Diva” has been shooting around town. “Van Wilder 3” has also been reportedly working its magic in the area. (We know, we know. Not exactly Oscar worthy but you take what you can get.) A possible ABC Family film starring Melissa Joan Hart (“Sabrina the Teenage Witch”) is also likely to be hitting town soon.

Are you up for Perry’s challenge? If so, what do you do or plan to do to help the less fortunate?
