Tomorrow Films slate for MIPTV
by Heather 18 Mar '05

18 Mar '05

Dear Colleague, We are excited to participate in the upcoming 2005 MIP-TV and look forward to bringing you some of the best in entertainment. We are proud to announce the feature film ROAD HOUSE 2: LAST CALL, written by Miles Chapman, directed by Richard Wenk, in association with MGM. This action/drama is currently in pre-production. We are in negotiations with Treat Williams ( Miss Congeniality 2 , WBs Everwood ) to play Nate, the brother of bouncer Dalton who was played by Patrick Swayze in the original Road House . For the action star role of Shane, the nephew of Nate, we are in negotiations with several young talented actors to cast in the lead; Ian Somerhalder (ABCs Lost ), Desmond Harrington ( Wrong Turn ), or Matthew Davis ( Legally Blonde ) will star in the film. This great action film follows Shane as he battles thugs to try to regain control of his Uncle Nates legendary bayou bar, The Black Pelican. TRESPASSSING , starring the breathtaking Estella Warren ( Planet of the Apes ) and Daniel Gillies ( Spiderman 2 ) is a gripping thriller you wont soon forget. The film follows a group of college students as they explore a hunted house in the swamps of Louisiana. Is it just a myth, or are people really destined to meet a grisly death if they dare to enter? This film is completed and was released theatrically in the U.S. by Screen Media. THE PRINCESS AND THE PEA , a feature length animated film, is great for the whole family. This classic story, inspired by the Hans Christian Andersen fairy tale, features studio quality animation. Its an exciting adventure that children of all ages will love to watch. FEATURE FILMS FOR FAMILIES We have a great library of family films, both animated and live action. Titles include: TINY HEROES THE SEVENTH BROTHER RIGOLETTO SEASONS OF THE HEART BEHIND THE WATERFALL SPLIT INFINITY IN YOUR WILDEST DREAMS and many more. Yoram Pelman, Tomorrow Films CEO would be delighted to meet with you in Cannes. We will be part of the IFTA Booth, No. 01.02, at the Palais des Festivals, Monday Thursday 11-14 April, 9:30 AM 6:00 PM. Please contact us to request a meeting by replying to this email or calling (818) 788-8776.
