WARREN COUNTY, OH -- With the holiday season now upon us, many of us here in Warren County will probably watch National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation at least once. But, did you know that actress Beverly D’Angelo of the “National Lampoon’s Vacation” movie fame, is from Columbus, Ohio?

To help promote her home state, D'Angelo will be starring in a new movie trailer for Ohio Goes to the Movies (OGTTM), a signature event of the America 250-Ohio celebration. The unprecedented statewide celebration of Ohio film will run statewide for about 250 days in 2026, with movie events featuring Ohio and Ohioans from past and present. 

The two-minute “Coming 2026” movie trailer with D’Angelo will be released later this month and will be on Ohio screens in advance of feature films to begin building awareness of Ohio Goes to the Movies.

The trailer encourages statewide participation in hosting an OGTTM event at venues that include historic theaters, commercial cinemas, drive-in theaters, art houses, and community auditoriums.

Look for the Ohio Goes to the Movies trailer in Ohio’s theaters and cinemas.
