The Sopranos and Goodfellas star Lorraine Bracco is the latest addition to David Henrie's upcoming family adventure film, Boys of Summer, along with Nora Zehetner (Grey’s Anatomy), Julian Lerner (The Wonder Years), Abby James Witherspoon (Secret Headquarters), and Noah Cottrell (Punky Brewster).

Directed by actor-director David Henrie, best known for This is the Year and Wizards of Waverly Place, the film will star quite an ensemble cast, as joining the aforementioned names are Mel Gibson and Mason Thames, as announced earlier. Brian Schulz, the three-time New York Emmy Award-winning producer for Major League Baseball Productions in New York City and the scriptwriter for The Peanuts Movie, and Cornelius Uliano, who co-wrote The Peanuts Movie, have developed the script for Boys of Summer​​​​​​.

The plot follows a local boy, played by Mason Thames, whose best friend is mysteriously taken and starts to believe that a supernatural entity may be hunting the children of Martha’s Vineyard. Mel Gibson plays an aged detective whose counsel Thames' character seeks, and slowly, the latter starts to discover that he is on the path of a witch who has recently retired to his island.

Following her performances in Martin Scorsese’s Goodfellas and David Chase’s The Sopranos, it is really worth looking forward to which character Oscar, Emmy, and Golden Globe nominee Lorraine Bracco will be bringing to life. Her other upcoming projects include the Disney+ live-action adaptation of Pinocchio, where she will voice the character of Sofia the Seagull. Bracco is being represented by A3 Artists Agency and One Entertainment​​​​​​.

Grey's Anatomy star Nora Zehetner is also a part of the star-studded ensemble, although it is currently not known which character she will be playing. Zehetner's current roles include the character of Dr. Reed Adamson in Shonda Rhimes's long-running medical drama Grey’s Anatomy. She can also be seen in Disney+’s series adaptation of Tom Wolfe’s book The Right Stuff.

Julian Lerner currently stars as Brad in ABC’s reboot of The Wonder Years, the late '80s coming-of-age sitcom. Abby James Witherspoon is set to star in Henry Joost and Ariel Schulman’s upcoming action-adventure pic Secret Headquarters. Noah Cottrell will next be seen in Peacock’s reboot of Punky Brewster, the iconic '80s sitcom about a child who has been taken in by a crusty Chicago photographer.

Boys of Summer is currently under production in North Carolina, with Mark Fasano, James Henrie, John Blanford and Dan McDonough producing. Darren Moorman, Scott Pomeroy, Tobias Weymar, Annie Mohoney, Lorenzo Henrie, and Amanda Devine serve as executive producers.
