Rachel True, one of the stars of the teenage witch movie and 1996 cult classic “The Craft,” has landed the lead role in new supernatural thriller, “The Last Call.”
Variety has learned exclusively that True will be starring in the upcoming feature, alongside Academy Award nominee Bruce Davison and Emmy winner Keith David. The film begins shooting on Aug. 9 in Morristown, N.J., with planned shoots also in Los Angeles, Calif.

Making Waves: The Art of Cinematic Sound directed by Midge Costin, which had its world premiere at the Tribeca Film Festival, takes a fascinating, in-depth look at the key figures in the field of sound design and the process they’ve mastered.
When the trailers for The Force Awakens first dropped, what gave me the biggest thrill was hearing the Millennium Falcon take flight again, the sound of those Tie fighters hurtling behind it, the zip of the stormtrooper’s laser guns, John Williams’ iconic score, and of course Chewbacca growling in response to Han’s line, ‘Chewie, we’re home’. All elements of that much-loved sci-fi saga’s now familiar sound design that first transported us to a galaxy far, far away back in 1977, created by Oscar-winning sound designer Ben Burtt. Coincidentally, I saw Making Waves on the same day that Peter Mayhew’s family shared the sad news that he had passed away.
