AMC Theatres gives My Online Valentine, starring The Bold and the Beautiful's Taja V. Simpson (ex-Adele), a one-week-only run.
Major cinemas don't often run independent films without Hollywood star power, but it was love at first sight when AMC Theaters got ahold of My Online Valentine, a new film starring The Bold and the Beautiful alum Taja V. Simpson (ex-Adele).
The actress, who appeared on B&B from 2012 to 2014, took to Instagram and explained that the romantic comedy is "an independent feature film that normally wouldn't make it into theaters because industry standard would mandate more larger named actors in it. However, @amctheatres loved it and is giving us a chance!"
