And in Hollywood news, Jennifer Hudson, Octavia Spencer and other big screen heavy-hittes, have snagged a new Lifetime Movie called: ‘Call Me Crazy: A Five Film’.

The film, which airs next month, is about a loved one, who struggles with mental illness. Read the release for full details about the film.

LOS ANGELES, CA (March 19, 2013) – The Lifetime Original Movie event Call Me Crazy: A Five Film, which brings together an all-star ensemble cast with five interwoven stories about how everlasting bonds of love and family can overcome life’s most challenging hurdles, will make its world premiere on Saturday, April 20, at 8:00pm ET/PT.

Through the five shorts named after each title character — Lucy, Eddie, Allison, Grace and Maggie – powerful relationships built on hope and triumph raise a new understanding of what happens when a loved one struggles with mental illness. Call Me Crazy stars Academy Award(R) and Golden Globe(R) winners Jennifer Hudson (Dreamgirls), Melissa Leo (The Fighter) and Octavia Spencer (The Help), Sarah Hyland (Modern Family), Sofia Vassilieva (My Sister’s Keeper), Brittany Snow (Pitch Perfect), Ernie Hudson (Oz), Jason Ritter (Parenthood), three-time Emmy Award(R)-winner Jean Smart (Frasier), Lea Thompson (J. Edgar), Oscar(R)-nominee Melanie Griffith (Working Girl) and Chelsea Handler (Chelsea Lately). Laura Dern (Enlightened), Bryce Dallas Howard (The Help), Bonnie Hunt (Return to Me), Ashley Judd (Missing) and Sharon Maguire (Bridget Jones’s Diary) direct the anthology.

Call Me Crazy is executive produced by Jennifer Aniston, Marta Kauffman, Kristin Hahn, Kevin Chinoy and Francesca Silvestri, all of whom executive produced last year’s critically acclaimed Lifetime Original Movie Five. The movie is produced by Sony Pictures Television, Echo Films and Freestyle Picture Company.

“When we started researching this topic, we were all surprised to learn that one in four adults lives with some sort of mental illness. With so many people dealing with this in their private lives, there is still so much stigma and shame. It’s time we bring it out of the closet and into the light of day,” said Aniston.

Kauffman added, “We are so proud to be a part of this powerful television event. To work with such amazingly talented directors, writers and actors, and for Lifetime to give us the opportunity to tackle such an important issue is nothing less than miraculous. We are extremely grateful to be able to shed even a little light on this topic, and we fervently hope that this is just the beginning of the mental health discussion in our country.”

“We are thrilled to have such a brilliant ensemble of talent – both in front of and behind the camera – on this film, which uses dramatic and comedic storytelling to capture one of the most relevant issues our country faces today,” said Rob Sharenow, Executive Vice President, Programming, of Lifetime Networks.

“After the success of Five, it is a privilege to collaborate again on Call Me Crazy: A Five Film,” said Helen Verno, Executive Vice President of Movies and Miniseries, Sony Pictures Television. “This brilliant team of executive producers has gathered an extraordinary cast and an exemplary team of directors and writers to create an innovative approach to address the serious subject matter of mental illness.”
