Upcoming Lionsgate movies round-up
Hey Folks,
I got to do something pretty cool not too long ago. I went to the Cast and Crew Screening of CRANK. I actually met CRANK star Jason Statham. He was really cool. Hey, he took time to talk to me so he gets points for that. I also chatted with Jose Pablo Cantillo. He plays the movies bad guy, Verona. In real life he’s nothing but a good guy. He is starring in a new fall show called Standoff. That’s the one with Ron Livingston. It’s not a Lionsgate show but he was a nice guy so I’ll give the show a mention here.
On to Lionsgate’s next wide release which is EMPLOYEE OF THE MONTH starring Dane Cook, Jessica Simpson, Dax Shephard and Efren Ramirez (PEDRO!) The movie opens on October 6. Just about 3 weeks away. There are still some promo materials available such as bottle openers and coasters. So give me a call or drop me an e-mail. Don’t forget to give me your Technicolor Account Number so I can ship out your stuff.
For the Art Houses we have the September 15 release of THE U.S. vs. JOHN LENNON. This documentary is for the music lover, the history buff and of course fans of The Beatles. It shows how in 1971 the United States Government tried to have John Lennon deported because they feared his belief in giving peace a chance could possibly dishevel the political landscape of the time.
In case you needed reminding, Halloween is just around the corner and you know what that means… SAW 3! Opening wide on October 27!
