Octavia Spencer and Ariana DeBose in ‘Tow’
The upcoming film relies on the true story of Amanda Ogle, played by Rose Byrne.
Octavia Spencer and Ariana DeBose have joined the brand new film ‘Tow’, which is currently in production.
According to Deadline, the 2 Oscar winners join the star-studded forged, including Rose Byrne, Dominic Sessa and Demi Lovato. The film “tells the true story of Amanda Ogle, a homeless Seattle woman who fought her way out of towing company hell to reclaim her life and the car that held it all after receiving a $21,634 towing bill,” in keeping with the outlet.
Byrne plays Ogle in the upcoming project. Ogle is executive producer of the film, from an original screenplay by Jonathan Keasey, Brant Boivin and Annie Weisman. Stephanie Laing serves as director.
Laing said Deadline, “Amanda is a true champion and I’m thrilled to bring her story of tenacity and perseverance to audiences, especially my friends and colleagues Rose and Anna. Rose is the perfect artist to bring Amanda’s story to life.”
Spencer just finished the third season of “Truth Be Told” on Apple TV+ and is understood for her roles in “Hidden Figures,” “The Shape of Water” and, after all, her Oscar-winning role in “The Help.” As theGrio previously reported, Spencer would earn a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame in 2022, saying on the time, “It’s not an expression of gratitude that I feel about this honor.”
DeBose, a star of stage and screen, had a breakout role in the 2021 adaptation of Steven Spielberg’s “West Side Story,” which won her an Oscar for best supporting actress. Since her win, DeBose has appeared in Disney’s “The Wish,” hosted the Tony Awards twice and is about to star in the upcoming film “Kraven the Hunter.”
