The Sir Anthony Hopkins’ film in Enderby has wrapped as of December 9th. The new thriller “Go with Me” set to be out in 2015 also featured Julia Stiles, Alexander Lugwig, Ray Liotta, and a list of celebs from LA and Vancouver.

Local actor, Geoff Millar, who stood in for Hopkins on the last day of shooting said, “That Tony is a super friendly and kind person to talk to, and it was certainly a highlight of my acting career so far to be on the set for several days”.

OSIF

If you’re still unfamiliar with OSIF (the Okanagan Society of Independent Filmmaking), for the record it’s not a Serbo-Croatian Gatsby character but a non-profit film society that has been around since 2003. They facilitate filmmakers by providing equipment rentals, film screenings, workshops, networking opportunities, and cast and crew listings. And, they have BIG plans for 2015!
