Jake Gyllenhaal and Jessica Biel will film a political satire in the Columbia area that was co-written by former Vice President Al Gore’s daughter, state officials announced today.

Here is the plot of the movie, called “Nailed,” according to The Hollywood Reporter:

“Biel plays Sammy Joyce, a socially awkward receptionist who gets hit in the head with a nail in an accident. This triggers her wild, sexual urges which causes her to fight in Washington for the rights of the bizarrely injured. She meets an immoral congressman (Gyllenhaal) who takes advantage of her sex drive and capitalizes on her crusade as Joyce heads into her own career in politics.”

The screenplay was written by Kristin Gore – Al’s daughter — and the movie’s director David O. Russell. Gore has written episodes for the TV show, “Futurama.”

Columbia was chosen because producers chose the South Carolina capital building to replicate the U.S. Capitol, the S.C. Department of Commerce and State Film Commission said.

The movie will be produced by Red Wagon Entertainment, Persistent Entertainment and The Gotham Group.

Earlier this year, the S.C. Film Commission announced “The New Daughter” – a film starring Kevin Costner – began shooting along the S.C. coast.

Hollywood last came to Columbia in 2006 when the Kevin Bacon action-adventure “Death Sentence” was filmed here.

Bacon showed up at Art Bar and even played guitar with a local band at a Halloween party in Five Points.”Death Sentence” co-starred Aisha Tyler.

The film didn’t exactly wow critics or movie-goers; it grossed only $5.3 million when it opened last Labor Day weekend.
