Actress Jennifer Aniston is reportedly set to star in Goree Girls, which is to be directed by Michael Sucsy. Also, staff from Overnight Productions (which plans to finance the film) Rick Schwartz and Aaron Kaufman have joined the beauty and her Echo Films partner Kristin Hahn as producers.
The plot of the film will revolve around a group of women who formed one of the first all-girl country western acts in the country and became a public favorite. The kicker? The Goree Girls All String Band was made up of eight convicted felons in the Goree State Farm prison in Huntsville, just northwest of Houston. They were eventually pardoned. Michael, who helmed Grey Gardens, which earned 17 Emmy Award nominations for HBO, will be making his feature directorial debut with the movie.
