Carly Pearce took to socials to announce her film debut in Anne Wilson's upcoming 'My Jesus' movie.

The movie 'My Jesus,' adapted from the 'My Jesus' book which has been adapted from the original song, will follow the story of a young Anne Wilson and her famous testimony. Wilson's testimony surrounds the loss of her brother Jacob, and how that loss devastated her family and led her to ultimate trust in Jesus and turning to Christian music, especially with the writing and recording of her debut song.

Though it hasn't been confirmed exactly what role Pearce will play in the film, it has been said she will make a "special appearance." Pearce wrote excitedly about her involvement via Instagram: "Secret's out! So excited to be making my film debut and to be a part of telling @annewilsonmusic's incredible story. Can't wait for y'all to see it!"

It has also been stated that Pearce will help bring the "music-driven" aspect of Wilson's testimony to life, so predictions for Pearce's placement in the movie vary. Perhaps she will make a special performance in the film, maybe one of herself singing 'My Jesus,' or offering some mentorship to a young Anne Wilson as she navigates her newfound fame?

The star-studded cast also includes Aliza Kate Barlow, who will make her feature debut as Wilson. Gavin Casalegno, who is known for his role as Jeremiah Fisher on The Summer I Turned Pretty will play her brother Jacob, and Charles Esten, who is known for his role as Ward Cameron on Outer Banks, will play her father.

An official premier date for the movie has not yet been announced; however, it has been confirmed that filming is currently taking place. With both Pearce's and Wilson's involvement in the movie, we're expecting nothing short of a tearjerker as the two country queens come together.
