NEW YORK -- Vivica A. Fox and Rachel Miner will star and Laura Ramsey and Toby Hemingway are in final negotiations to star in York Shackleton's Street, the true story of a 16-year-old runaway, from producer Insomnia Media Group.
Fox will portray a woman who helps and mentors Lexi (Ramsey), a girl with a troubled mother, a convict father and a caring sister (Miner).
