The bright lights of Hollywood are once again shining on the mountains of Western North Carolina.

A Hendersonville spokesperson confirms that a movie called "Summer Camp" is planning to use Camp Pinnacle for production.

More than 1,000 locals are expected to participate in the film, according to the production's casting director.

According to Deadline, an entertainment industry news website, the film will star Diane Keaton ("Annie Hall, "Something's Gotta Give"), Kathy Bates ("Misery," "Fried Green Tomatoes"), and Alfre Woodard ("Clemency," "Cross Creek").

Pictures of Keaton in Asheville have surfaced on social media.

Deadline says "Summer Camp" tells the story of three childhood best friends reuniting at a summer sleepaway camp.

Just months ago, Hallmark completed its production of "A Biltmore Christmas," filming at several locations in Asheville and Hendersonville.
