My friend Michael Mitchell was kind enough to pass along a press release for an upcoming film he is working on called Restless. This joint project between JH Productions, Underground Railroad Company, and A New Logic Television promises that Restless will be a unique combination of Groundhog Day meets The Sixth Sense.
Restless follows the story of “An average man somehow living out the same day over and over again, which inadvertently ends up with the same result…murder! With his sanity hanging in the balance our average Joe must unravel the mystery of his literally repetitious day and embrace a specific underlying lesson before it is too late.”
The phenomenal crew members hard at work behind Restless, which actually started filming yesterday, include: director Aaron Boltz, writer Josh Hodgins, producers Sunshine Whitton, Michael Mitchell, and James Bond III, and director of photography Brandon Russell. Cast members will include Josh Hodgins, Ashton Leigh, Bryan McGlothlin, Jez’reel Venegas, and Jesse Moon.
The team behind Restless anticipate a 4 month period between production of the film and its distribution date. The team is also hoping for a wide release, with distribution to movie theaters, TV, DVD, and other formats. The estimated release dates are June-August 2012 (theatrical) and October 2012 (television premiere).
Restless is currently filming in Yakima Valley, WA State. For all the breaking news on Restless, you can follow the film on Facebook by clicking here.
