EXCLUSIVE: Deluxe Ocean View, a psychological horror film penned by She-Hulk actor Ryan Powers that we reported on last August, has reassembled with a new cast and director, with production now underway on Cape Cod.

In addition to Powers, Callan McAuliffe (Greyhound 2), Camryn Manheim (The Practice), Henry Ian Cusick (Lost), and Ray Campbell (Breaking Bad) are now set to star, with Laurence Vannicelli (Mother, May I?) directing.

Set on the icy shores of Massachusetts in the dead of winter, Deluxe Ocean View follows renowned exposé journalist Ethan Everett (McAuliffe), who arrives at a nearly empty luxury resort for a career-saving interview, unaware that the hotel itself may be a malevolent force exposing buried truths before destroying its guests. As the off-season staff and lingering visitors — including the enigmatic owner Vera (Manheim), the watchful manager Oliver (Campbell), the morally layered Simon (Cusick), and the elusive drifter Johnny (Powers) — draw Ethan into a psychological maze of guilt and repression, the boundary between reality and nightmare begins to erode.

Powers is also producing under his banner R U Mad At Me Productions alongside Emmy nominee Jason B. Stamey (WandaVision, Avengers: Endgame) and Ellyn Vander Wyden (One Course with JB Smoove). Bradley Bredeweg (The Fosters, Good Trouble), who had previously been attached to direct, serves as executive producer.

McAuliffe is repped by Prototype Talent, Affirmative Entertainment, and Felker Toczek Suddleson; Manheim by Innovative Artists, Framework Entertainment, and Goodman, Genow, Schenkman; Cusick by Buchwald, Sequel Management, Luber Roklin, and Lichter, Grossman, Nichols; Campbell by Entertainment Lab and Imperium 7; and Vannicelli by Zero Gravity Management. The producers are repped by Lastine Entertainment Law.

EXCLUSIVE: Principal photography has wrapped in Los Angeles on the horror-comedy Blood Rush, with Billy Zane, Danielle Bisutti, and Henry Ian Cusick in the leading roles.

Set in 1881 during the American Western Frontier gold rush, the story follows Lucifer’s children, Lilith and Aamon, the original vampires who fly to the Americas to suck the living hope out of the common folk’s blood that’s been revived by the promise of the American Dream, the synopsis reads.

The synopsis continues: But plans to restore their Vampiric reign are thwarted when an old Familiar shows up, threatening to reveal their true nature if only his complicated feelings for The Vamps don’t bloody the waters.

The film stars Zane in the role of Aamon opposite Cusick, who is Van Helsing, and Bisutti as Lilith. Bisutti has also directed the film alongside her co-director, Stefan Colson.

Bisutti conceived the idea and developed the story with Colson before writing the screenplay. Bisutti and Colson produced the film with their respective companies, Perfect Timing Productions and BoatShoes Entertainment, alongside their partner, Mike Hatton, with Ton of Hats.

The cast also includes William McNamara (Copycat), Christina Moore (90210), Colin Cunningham (Falling Skies), Ken Davitian (Borat), and Robert Craighead (Shirley/Miss Governor).

Upcoming New Film with Henry Ian Cusick: “Fugitive from Asteron”

FROM HOLLYWOOD TIMES:

Henry Ian Cusick, Dean Cain, Rory Gibson Lead All-Star Cast in New Sci-Fi Drama “Fugitive from Asteron”

Los Angeles, March 14, 2025 – Henry Ian Cusick (Lost, MacGyver, The 100), Dean Cain (Lois & Clark: The New Adventures of Superman), Rory Gibson (The Young and The Restless) are set to star in the new sci-fi drama Fugitive from Asteron, adapted from the award-winning novel by Gen LaGreca, who also wrote the screenplay.

Directed by Dan T. Hall (Noble Vision, Greek Fire – Demon Spirit) and executive produced by LaGreca’s company Winged Victory Foundation, the film, currently in its final stages of production, is being shot in both Southern California and Central Indiana.

In Fugitive from Asteron, young pilot Arial (Gibson) escapes from the oppressive Planet Asteron by stealing the spacecraft of the ruler, Feran (Cusick). With a mysterious cargo on board, Arial lands on the future Earth and adopts a new name, Alexander. Feran hotly pursues him for the cargo, a powerful, new instrument that is a vital part of Feran’s secret plans for Earth. Alexander allies with pilot Kristin Merrett (Bradley) to unravel the cargo’s nature and confront an urgent threat that jeopardizes Earth and all he holds dear. The story weaves together adventure, romance, and mystery, as Alexander embarks on a quest to save the Earth and an inner journey to discover freedom, human happiness, and the pursuit of a life worth living. Cain plays Mykronie Whitman, the head of Interplanetary Travel Division at Merrett Aerospace Systems, who escaped from Planet Asteron 25 years ago.

“We’re delighted to have brought together such an incredible cast for our latest film,” comments LaGreca. “Through the story of a young man’s wild adventure spanning two planets, we aim to reach a young audience with vivid ideas of how precious freedom is, portrayed through a high-stakes mystery story, with romance, inner struggles, and dazzling special effects.”

La Greca’s most recent film, the drama/thriller Noble Vision, which tackles the bureaucracy and politics of the U.S. health care system, was released in fall 2024. The film garnered many awards on the festival circuit and currently is available on top digital platforms in North America.

Jim Kreuger (writer, Mortal Kombat: Shaolin Monks), Morgan Bradley (The Food That Built America), and Jam Murphy (Through the Modern Looking Glass) round out the all-star cast. Paul Ruddy is the film’s casting director.

The film, set to be released later this year, is executive produced by LaGreca’s company Winged Victory Foundation, and is produced by Dan T. Hall, with associate producer D. Paul Thomas (Of Things Past). The film’s cinematographer is Mark David (American Cowslip) and line producer is Pauline Jones (Jurassic Domination).

Gen LaGreca is an award-winning executive producer, film writer, and novelist. Her writings offer innovative plots and themes that inspire freedom and personal achievement. Her most recent movie Noble Vision has won over two dozen film-festival awards. Her four novels have won thirteen literary awards, garnered praise from magazine magnate Steve Forbes, Nobel laureate Milton Friedman, Past President of the American Medical Association Edward Annis, and others.

She has written the stage play adaptations of two of her novels, Just the Truth and Noble Vision. Her commentaries have appeared in Forbes, The Orange County Register, Real Clear Markets, and other publications.
