‘Starstruck’ filming
for Disney Channel
Production has begun on "Starstruck,” a music-filled Disney Channel original movie starring Sterling Knight ("Sonny With a Chance”) and introducing Danielle Campbell.
Scheduled to premiere in 2010, the movie is filming in and around Los Angeles at landmark locations, including Hollywood Boulevard, Sunset Boulevard, the Hollywood sign and Grauman’s Chinese Theater.
The story follows Jessica Olson (Campbell), a down-to-earth girl from the Midwest who literally collides with Hollywood’s teen heartthrob, pop star Christopher Wilder (Knight). They wind up on a love-struck adventure in Southern California, but their bond is tested when she returns home and he publicly denies their relationship.
Also starring are Brandon Mychal Smith ("Sonny With a Chance”) as Stubby, Christopher’s childhood best friend; Maggie Castle ("The Time Traveler’s Wife”) as Sara Olson, Jessica’s older, starstruck sister; and Dan O’Connor ("Malcolm in the Middle”) and Beth Littleford ("Rules of Engagement”) as Dean and Barbara Olson, Jessica and Sara’s parents.
