AnnaSophia Robb is hard at work on the beach in Hawaii filming Soul Surfer with Carrie Underwood. Robb is portraying Bethany Hamilton, the championship surfer who lost her arm in a shark attack.

Dennis Quaid and Helen Hunt play Robb’s film parents and Underwood is a church youth leader.

Robb is wearing a green sleeve for her scenes when filmmakers will digitally remove her left arm in the final cut of the movie.

Aimee Teegarden signed on for a surfing flick, Beautiful Waves, this past summer and now AnnaSophia Robb is beginning production on her new film, Soul Surfer. Robb’s movie is based on the real life experiences of Bethany Hamilton who lost her arm after being attacked in the water by a shark and went on to become a pro surfer.

“She’s super cool. A great girl,” Hamilton said of Robb. “We’ve met in Hawaii and hung out.” For post-attack scenes in which a one-armed stunt woman was needed, Hamilton stepped up. “They wanted a one-armed person doing it and that’s not easy to find,” Hamilton said.

Another surf movie is fine with me. I loved Robb (and Josh Hutcherson) in Bridge to Terabithia. and I can’t wait to see her in this.
