The Next American Girl Movies

American Girl Molly will follow in the footsteps of Samantha and Felicity and appear in a TV-movie this fall, MOLLY: AN AMERICAN GIRL ON THE HOME FRONT. Unlike the last two movies, which aired on the now-defunct WB network, MOLLY will air on the Disney Channel. Maya Ritter plays Molly; the cast also includes Molly Ringwald.

Particularly interesting news is that the Depression-era story of Kit will be a theatrical film. The production group which made the TV-movies (including actress Julia Roberts) is partnering with Walden Media, producers of THE LION, THE WITCH, AND THE WARDROBE, to produce the Kit movie. Sounds promising.
