Whoopi in Big Stone Gap film to shoot in Wise County
Hollywood plans a major motion picture based on Adriana Trigiani’s Big Stone Gap to film largely in Big Stone Gap Wise County Virginia starring Whoopi Goldberg with other stars kept secret. Local liaison Jack McClanahan says about 95 percent of production will occur here and could spark a regional boom akin to coal. The book sits high on the New York Times list and mirrors the author’s real hometown experiences.
