The Elektra and Dallas Buyers Club star will play the mother of a Texan girl ‘healed by God’
Elektra star Jennifer Garner is set to star in Miracles from Heaven, the latest faith-based film to emerge from the Hollywood studio system. Sony Pictures, which scored a significant hit with Heaven Is for Real in 2014, is backing Miracles, which, like Heaven Is for Real, is based on a successful book.
Written by Christy Wilson Beam and published earlier this year, Miracles from Heaven: A Little Girl, Her Journey to Heaven, and Her Amazing Story of Healing – to give it its full title – is an account of the apparent miracle curing of a young Texan girl’s debilitating illness, after she reported “visiting heaven”. The director will be the Mexican-born film-maker Patricia Riggen, who is currently working on The 33, based on the 2010 Chilean miners’ rescue.
