MARY ANNE TO PRODUCE GILLIGANS ISLAND-INSPIRED DRAMA
LOS ANGELES (Wireless Flash) Although Ginger was the movie star on Gilligans Island, Mary Anne is the one turning out to be a producer. Actress Dawn Wells will soon be producing a drama loosely based on her Gilligan gig. The 62-year-old actress is excited about the movie but admits casting actors to play folks like Jim Backus, Alan Hale, Jr. or Bob Denver wont be easy. However, she says shes having the hardest time finding an actress who looks and acts like she did back in the 60s. Theres no scheduled production date set for the movie but Wells is still keeping busy. Shell make a guest appearance on the NBC sitcom Three Sisters on May 1.
