TRINITY — The city of Trinity and surrounding areas, including Groveton, could be the site of a future movie.
At the Thursday Trinity City Council meeting, writer-producer-manager Terry Weaver said he plans to produce a film in the county, “The Beast of Trinity, Texas,” and sought the council’s blessing to use the name in the title.
Weaver said he first learned of Trinity from his children attending camps at Carolina Creek, and that he has been drawn to small towns, particularly as settings for his writing.
He described the movie as a mystical/mythological drama, one that will have a positive message and undertones of spirituality.
Council Member Bubba Smith said Weaver did not need the council’s blessing, but the council did give it unanimously. However, Council Member Scott Womack expressed concern about how Trinity was portrayed, as there were two television shows filmed in the county previously, and while one was good, the second made the townspeople look like hillbillies.
