Maia Mitchell has landed a new role! The young actress is set to join Yara Shahidi in the upcoming Amazon Prime film, Sitting In Bars With Cake.
“Based on a true story, Sitting in Bars with Cake follows a quiet young woman who is unlucky in love and discovers an unlikely guy magnet when she bakes a cake for her best friend’s birthday and brings it to a bar, only to be swarmed by men. She believes it’s a fluke, but her friend convinces her to commit to a year of baking cakes and bringing them to bars, with the goal of finding true love. The shy young woman’s life subsequently opens up in ways she couldn’t have imagined.”
The pair will be joined in the film by Bette Midler, Ron Livingston, Aaron Dominguez, Rish Shah, and Odessa A’zion. Production on their new film is set to begin next month in Los Angeles.
