Casting extras for "Jack of the Red Hearts," a feature film starring AnnaSophia Robb, Israel Broussard, Scott Cohen, and Taylor Richardson. Synopsis: A streetwise teenage runaway is on the lam from her probation officer. Her name is Jacquelyn, but if you call her anything but Jack, she’ll cut you. Needing to lay low, earn money, and gain adequate stability to rescue her 11-year-old sister Coke from foster care, Jack cons her way into a suburban home as live-in helper for their autistic 11-year-old daughter, Glory. Much to her surprise, Jack has a unique ability to connect with the nonverbal little girl. As she positively impacts Glory, the family impacts Jack. Particularly Kay, Glory’s mother. As these two scrappy survivors find an affinity with each other, Kay finds in Jack a daughter she can talk to. When romantic sparks fly between Jack and Robert, Glory’s 17-year-old brother, we see a group of wounded people poignantly and surprisingly begin to heal each other---just a little bit. But the law catches up, the truth comes out, and Jack is forced to make a choice---to save her own hide, or save someone else.
I'm now getting an additional American Beauty (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0169547/) vibe from this, that is, it's a little creepy, which makes it even more intriguing -- as in possibly a good/great 'dark' romance-drama film. Well, at least I hope it's good.
Original Information
Appears that AnnaSophia is attempting to squeeze in at least one more movie project before college.

A rebellious teen on the run from her probation officer cons her way into a suburban family as a live-in helper for their Autistic daughter - an experience that changes her cynical perception of the world, but threatens to be snatched away at any moment as the law catches up with her.
I've found very little information, and all about a year-and-a-half old. However, based on the makeup -- note the nose ring -- and story synopsis, the role seems similar to Robb's character (Samantha) in The Space Between (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1525898/).
On the personal opinion side, I gave AnnaSophia a thumb up for her portrayal of Sam, although, I'd deem this continued experimentation, i.e., beyond ASR's well established image. Therefore, I'm going to hold back most of my judgement until actually seeing it, but maintain optimism of potential.
