Watch: "Sister Cities" Stars Have Tons of Fun on Set

Sister Cities, the Lifetime movie premiering on the network tonight, scored a pretty fantastic all-star cast. The indie film nabbed Castle's Stana Katic, The Good Wife's Jess Weixler, Pretty Little Liars' Troian Bellisario and Gossip Girl's Michelle Trachtenberg to play a group of four estrange sisters who reunite to mourn following their mother's alleged suicide—only to find a mystery surrounding her death.

The mother? Played by Animal Kingdom (the movie) star Jacki Weaver (and Amy Smart in flashbacks).

"They are divine," Weaver told E! News of her TV daughters at Lifetime's premiere for the film. While she didn't get to share the screen with them very much, considering her character is dead when they actually get together, she did recall one scene she enjoyed with the whole family. "We did have one hilarious Thanksgiving dinner scene but they're all so accomplished and so beautiful."

Weixler and her TV sisters grew close—check out Trachtenberg crashing the interview for proof—and she told us that she loved working with them so much that she can't wait to watch more of their work.

"After I got to know these girls I was like, 'I want to see everything they do, because they're so good!' In this movie in particular, everybody has to show so much range. We go through so much together," she said.

The film also marks the acting debut of Kaia Gerber, a.k.a. Cindy Crawford's model daughter. Weixler said the newbie did an excellent job. "She was just so excited and she was like, 'How am I doing? Do I seem natural?' And she was. It's clearly in the genes—she's comfortable in front of the camera."
