NATALEE HOLLOWAY SHOCKER

description

Natalee Holloway‘s grieving father was shocked when he learned he’d been shut out of a new TV movie about his daughter’s disappearance, The ENQUIRER has learned exclusively.

The film, Natalee Holloway – which features Michael J. Fox‘s wife, actress Tracy Pollan – was already wrapped and scheduled for an April 19 airing on Lifetime before Dave Holloway knew anything about it, say pals.

The movie is based on the book Loving Natalee: A Mother’s Testament of Hope and Faith, written by her mom, Dave’s ex-wife Beth Holloway.

And ironically, at the same time he learned about the film, Dave was in the process of arranging for a private investigator with a tracking dog to travel to Aruba to make yet another attempt to locate his beloved daughter’s body.

Natalee, 18, vanished from the Caribbean island of Aruba on May 30, 2005, during a graduation trip with her senior class.

Wealthy lawyer’s son Joran van der Sloot was arrested after admitting he took her to a lonely beach, but he and two pals were later released and no charges have ever been brought.

"Dave has never quit trying to get to the bottom of what happened to his daughter," a friend told The ENQUIRER.

"Yet despite his continuing involvement in the case, he didn’t know anything about the movie until someone called him recently and said they’d seen on the Internet that it was going to be shown on Lifetime".

"It took him totally by surprise."
