The journey of creating Feelin’ Lucky, the much-anticipated docudrama by Chris Vaughn, has been nothing short of a rollercoaster. While the film’s raw and brief emotional exploration of the moral implications of divorce and remarriage has struck a chord with many, production has faced its own share of challenges. However, as true storytellers know, it’s in the struggle that the magic is born.
Initially slowed by budget constraints, Feelin’ Lucky encountered delays due to conflicting schedules among cast and crew members—many of whom are highly sought-after talents working on multiple projects. Thanks to Chris Vaughn’s deep ties to the vibrant Jersey Shore film community, the production has already secured top-tier New Jersey professionals, like Ernest O’Donnell, and some others, who’ve agreed to work for less than their usual rates, demonstrating their passion for the film’s vision.
Now, with revitalized funding and an upcoming billboard campaign set to make waves across the Jersey Shore next year, Feelin’ Lucky is surging forward with renewed energy. Local businesses, community leaders, and local stars are rallying behind the film, offering their support and making this project a true collaborative effort.
Adding to the excitement, two highly successful music producers are currently in contract negotiations to join the cast and crew. While we can’t reveal their names just yet, we can promise they bring the kind of star power and expertise that will elevate Feelin’ Lucky to a whole new level. As anticipation builds, Vaughn and his team remain steadfast in their mission to wrap filming before the fall holiday season of 2025. This production is more than just a film; it’s a labor of love and a testament to the resilience of artists united by a shared purpose.
Stay tuned for more updates, and prepare to be part of something truly special. Because sometimes, a little grit, community spirit, and Jersey Shore magic is all you need to turn a dream into reality.
