The actress and singer, also known as her TV persona Hannah Montana, stars as a teenage girl struggling with her parents' divorce who tries to reconnect with her father during a summer at his home in a quiet beach town.
Filmmakers will spend several days shooting at the island's fishing pier, which will mean closing the! attraction to visitors temporarily, and roadblocks will go up around the beach house being used as a location.
Tybee resident Monty Parks, who opened an internet cafe near the pier a few months ago, said he hopes to sell plenty of lattes to the film crew and gawking tourists.
"If you're somebody who wants Tybee to stay out of the limelight, you're going to be broken-hearted," he said. "I think there's going to be a lot of people here. It's going to be great for me."
