Production Weekly is reporting that Justin Long (Accepted) is set to star in Patriotville for writer/director Talmage Cooley.
The film centers on Long’s character when he discovers that an Indian casino is about to be built over the town’s historic battlefield, Chase Revere (Long), the self-appointed protector of a small town’s rather meager place in American history, joins forces with sexy but quirky Lucy Shanks to launch an all-out offensive against the project — earning the wrath of the entire town, who believe that the casino will save their dying, rust-belt community.
Production is set to begin the middle of next month in South Carolina.
