Tulsa native and now Los Angeles-based filmmaker Todd Lincoln seems to have his most promising film project to date lined up with the news that one of the stars of "Twilight" is thisclose to being cast in a lead role.
Variety reported Thursday that Ashley Greene -- best known to film audiences for playing Alice Cullen, or the sister of studly Robert Pattinson's character -- is in final negotiations to star in "Apparition."
"Apparition" is based on Lincoln's original screenplay, and he will direct the film about a supernatural being that is freed during an experiment by college students.
The film is scheduled to begin production in February for Dark Castle production company, started by Joel Silver ("The Matrix" films, "Lethal Weapon" films), who will produce "Apparition."
Lincoln, a Holland Hall graduate, has been working in Los Angeles for several years making videos and commercials. He also started, along with his pal Jeremy Lamberton, the 10-year-run of the Tulsa Overground Film Festival.
