The musician-actress siblings known as Aly &amp; AJ, who perform together as the musical duo 78violet, produced and starred in the film as two sisters on the cusp of adulthood spending their last week in their LA hometown before embarking on their next tour.  The Michalkas drew on their own experiences as Billboard-charting touring musicians for the non-autobiographical, fictional story. <\/p>\n<p>They should have plenty of material: The pair released the first of three studio album in 2005 and co-starred in Disney telefilm Cow Belles and MTV\u2019s Super Sweet 16: The Movie before building their own respective acting careers in TV and film. Aly appeared on Phil Of The Future, Hellcats, and in films Bandslam and Easy A and last year joined the cast of Two And A Half Men. AJ\u2019s credits include The Lovely Bones, Secretariat, and ABC\u2019s The Goldbergs. They produced the film along with Ringer and Kerry Barden through Violet House Productions.<\/p>\n<p>Mimi Rogers also toplines the cast, which includes Gil Bellows, Dan Byrd, Liam Aiken, Amanda Crew, Tyler Labine, Madeline Zima, Erin Cummings, Ryan Donowho, Gale Harold, and Jon Heder. \u201cAJ and I have always wanted to create a project that we could be involved in from the very start from the script development stage, to the financing, to the casting process,\u201d said Aly Michalka. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe wanted to utilize our own lives as entertainers as the jumping off point for a fictional story. So we took our vision to our director to bring our idea to life. This was a movie to be made together as young women, not as children like we had in the past.\u201d Said AJ Michalka: \u201cThe best part of this project was being able to work with the one person that knows you better than anyone else. We pushed each other to share parts of ourselves that no one has ever seen on screen before. We were very transparent about our insecurities and our failures.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Aly and AJ Michalka are repped by Gersh, Evolution Entertainment, and McKuin, Frankel, and Whitehead.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We have added the post about the new A&amp;A&#8217;s secret project (source:&nbsp;<a href=\"http:\/\/www.deadline.com\/2014\/07\/aly-michalka-aj-michalka-topline-own-la-set-indie-dramedy\/?utm_source=dlvr.it&amp;utm_medium=twitter\">deadline.com<\/a>)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":2788,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":"","jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false},"categories":[2,6,9,10],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-165","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-aj","category-aly","category-movies","category-news"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/alyandajrussia.tk\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/iblAg8iXHjYTdk-1.jpg","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/alyandajrussia.tk\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/165","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/alyandajrussia.tk\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/alyandajrussia.tk\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/alyandajrussia.tk\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/alyandajrussia.tk\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=165"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/alyandajrussia.tk\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/165\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/alyandajrussia.tk\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/2788"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/alyandajrussia.tk\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=165"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/alyandajrussia.tk\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=165"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/alyandajrussia.tk\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=165"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
