A few updates...

After a tremendously busy holiday season, Mackenzie is finally back in the swing of things, including school, work and the gymnastic competition season! Mackenzie recently worked on her 3rd episode of The Middle reprising her role of Megan again. She was very excited to have been asked back. She also booked an "Untitled MTV Project" that is scheduled to air in March! Her recent films, GOD BLESS AMERICA and DEADTIME STORIES: Grave Secrets will be theatrically released in March as well. The Spring will be a very fun time!

Crazy busy, not much time to blog!

Mackenzie finished the shooting of Deadtime Stories and it was a huge success and loads of fun. It was a project she was really happy to be apart of. Since the summer, she has started school and has been auditioning like crazy. She is also gearing up to begin the 2011-12 Gymnastics Competition Season. So, she is training hard academically, creatively and athletically. Her film, God Bless America was screened at the Toronto Film Festival this month and received great reviews. The film was purchased by Magnolia Pictures and will be released theatrically and for VOD next year! Deadtime Stories will also be released early next year. We can't wait to see the final products!!!

Deadtime Stories is beginning!

Very excited to report that after two delays Deadtime Stories: Grave Secrets is in pre-production mode! Mackenzie booked the role of "Anna" who is a child ghost. The cast is really amazing and she is very excited to begin shooting in a few weeks.  The film is based off the book series that came out in the mid-1990's. The script is really amazing and Mackenzie can't wait to start her 'haunting' after a much deserved vacation!!

God Bless America

Mackenzie was thrilled to book the role of AVA in Bobcat Goldthwait's newest theatrical endeavor....God Bless America. Shooting begins the last week in April and she is very excited to begin work. It's been a slow start this Spring, so this was a nice surprise. After a push on the original start date, Mackenzie will finally begin working on the film, Deadtime Stories in July. Yeah!

2011 is off to a great start!

The first booking of the new year is a reprisal of Mackenzie's portrayal of 'Megan' on THE MIDDLE! Mackenzie was asked to return to play Megan on the Valentine's Week Episode, titled, "Valentines Day II". She was very excited about the booking and of course, all the great auditions she is involved in already!

Lots of Exciting things in the works!

Besides the upcoming holidays, Mackenzie has tons to be excited about. She is currently shooting an episode of the new NBC Sitcom, MAD LOVE, starring Sarah Chalke, Judy Greer and Jason Biggs. It's a great cast and crew to be involved in. Mackenzie will be playing the role of "Young Connie" which is a younger version of Judy Greer's character. She also booked the role of "Ella" in a short film, titled "Finding Hope". Her older sister is being played by Molly Quinn (Castle) and includes other amazing cast such as Darby Stanchfield (Mad Men), Andy Mackenzie (True Blood) and several others! This film is a sequel to 2008's "Sacrifice".
And if that wasn't enough good news, Mackenzie booked a commercial for PUBLIX Grocery Stores.
It's been a busy month despite the holiday breaks. Thanks for the great wishes, support and general 'break legs!'

Criminal Minds!

Mackenzie booked and shot episode 6.08 on Criminal Minds this past week. She was very happy to have booked a role on such a highly rated and amazing show. Mackenzie participated in a table read with the entire cast and had a really great time. Everyone was so pleasant and she couldn't stop talking about Kristen Vangsness' amazing shoes! Mackenzie's scenes took place in downtown LA and she really enjoyed the whole experience. She wishes to thank everyone who was involved.....Fantastic!
