On Set and On Shelves: Catherine Sewell Brings Star Power to Shreveport's "The Wedding War"

ANNAPOLIS, Md. - Aug. 15, 2026 - PRLog -- The lights are up, the cameras are rolling, and Shreveport has a notable presence on set. Catherine Sewell, multi-hyphenate actress, filmmaker, author, and educator whose career spans more than 150 productions across film, television, stage, and digital media, is in Shreveport through August 20, 2026, filming a featured role in The Wedding War, a SAG low-budget feature comedy now in production in the region.

Directed by Hannah Dorsett and based on the beloved novel by Liz Talley, The Wedding War follows two ex-best friends whose children's engagement reignites a long-buried rivalry, sending a chaotic wedding season into delightful freefall. The production runs August 10 through September 2, 2026, continuing the Shreveport-Bossier City corridor's tradition as one of the South's most vibrant film production hubs.

An Actress Who Has Lived Every Scene She Plays
Born in McColl, South Carolina and rooted in North Carolina, Catherine Sewell brings something most actors spend a lifetime chasing: genuine depth due to her understanding of human nature from the inside out, and it shows on screen.

The Book That Is Turning Heads Across the Industry
Sewell arrives in Shreveport not only as an actress but also as a newly published author. TRADE SECRETS, published by Owlhouse Books, a DonnaInk Imprint, is a definitive guide for today's performers: practical, empowering, and written by someone who has lived every chapter of the journey - it also features three forewords from names who carry the weight of television history:

Johnny Whitaker, beloved by generations as Jody Davis on Family Affair (1966-1971), title character in the classic 1973 musical Tom Sawyer, and star of Sigmund and the Sea Monsters, lends his foreword with warmth and wisdom.

JD Demers, whose credits include a distinguished body of work in film and television, contributes a foreword that speaks to the professional realities of sustaining a career in an ever-evolving industry.

Lance Britt, whose own credits reflect decades of commitment to the performing arts, rounds out an exceptional foreword trio representing three legendary careers and one resounding endorsement of Sewell's guidance.

In Shreveport Through August 20
Catherine Sewell is available for interviews, features, and on-location conversations through August 20, 2026. Whether the story is the film, the book, the foreword contributors, or the remarkable trajectory of a woman who built a career on authenticity and artistry.
