\n\tBewkes makes his feature directorial debut with the indie film<\/a> that he also wrote and produces for Hang Six Films. The project\u2019s producers include Bennett Cordon for Salt Cellar Films, alongside Thomas Cross. Lucas Ford and Colin Oh are executive producers. Hang Six Films handles sales for the movie that is currently in post-production after a 16-day shoot in Los Angeles.<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cThe goal was to make a feel-good comedy set in the last place you\u2019d ever imagine to really sell the story\u2019s message of hope and community,\u201d Bewkes tells THR in a statement. \u201cI wanted to show that if kidnapped victims can find happiness in a dingy basement, then us surface folk can do the same up here.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tBewkes helmed the short film Shut Up, Jack that premiered at the 2024 Tribeca<\/a> Festival. He starred in the project alongside fellow castmembers Anand Mahalingam, Linnea Bullion, Ricky Wilson and Rahne Avant.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Janel Parrish, Leslie David Baker and Erinn Hayes lead a forthcoming feature centering on a kidnapping.
