I saw a casting call in today’s Richmond Times-Dispatch “Weekend” magazine–they’re looking for 1,000 extras for a Touchstone Television pilot called “Commander-in-Chief,” starring Geena Davis as the first female president. The open casting call will be held Saturday, 10-6, at The Shops at Willow Lawn in Richmond.

The Virginia Film Office must be doing cartwheels. Drudge is leading with the story, using a huge picture of Ms. Davis.
