Mary to Star in New Film Faults!

on July 1, 2013 by Jessica Comments Off

Deadline is reporting that Mary will be starring in her husband Riley Stearns’ next directorial debut, a feature film called Faults. In the film, Mary will play a young cult member whose parents hire an expert to deprogram her, but the expert begins to think they might be more of a threat than the cult. Produced by Snoot Entertainment, Faults is scheduled to start shooting later this year.

This comes on the heels of being cast in the Untitled Chris Messina project (which is currently filming) and being cast in Quarry! Congrats on all the recent projects, Mary!!
