Thomas Jane's "The Dark Country" in 3D
"The Dark Country" has started filming in Albuquerque in high definition 3D and 2D. It is a film noir thriller written by Tab Murphy of "Tarzan" fame. Best of all it stars my past co-star Ron Perlman who I performed with on the set of "Outlander" last fall. Ok. I was a background actor but that's beside the point isn't it? Anyway Hellboy himself will be front and center along with Lauren German (Hostel: Part II) and of course The Punisher, Thomas Jane himself.
Hyde Park Entertainment and Stage 6 Films will produce it (Patrick Aiello / Ashok Amritra).
"The Dark Country" is leading the pack to claim the left over theater positions available between the studio tentpoles. Once DWA's "Monsters vs. Aliens" and James Cameron's "Avatar" have had their summer runs in 2009 for example, there will be room for other projects. Other projects such as Chris Condon and Ed Meyers remake of "Stewardesses 3D" and "Dumbass 3D" provide lighter fare for theater goers. Expect much more from Thomas Jane's Raw Entertainment company. He is definitely on the right track!
I really enjoyed Jane in "61*" and now that he is an afficionado of 3D he is certainly impressing me with his vision. Break a leg with your first feature directing gig Thomas.
