According to THR, the 17-year-old actress/singer is set to star in AwesomenessTV’s Shovel Buddies alongside YouTube star Kian Lawley, and actors Alex Neustaedter and Anton Starkman.
Shovel Buddies “tells the story of four friends who come together to do right by their friend Sammy, who recently died of leukemia.”
The description continues, “Jimmy (Neustaedter) finds a letter from Sammy asking that he be buried in his favorite football jersey instead of cremated like his parents plan. Jimmy enlists his little brother Lump (Starkman), his other best friend Dan (Lawley), Sammy’s sister Kate (Thorne) to do honor Sammy’s wishes.”
Production on the project started last month in California.
