"HOLIGUARDS" (Kevin Spacey, 2024-2025, TV) (in post-prod)

[Jox]

And it doesn't mean anything, but under the X message about the teaser, a couple of users are inquiring about their NFT (coins) that seem to have disapear
and despite it appearing to be a huge event and stuff, media coverage is close to none (i suspect the aforementioned Forbes article was a paid promotion).
I rather wait for the release of the ISaac Florentine film and the (I'm sure of it) MOTU cameo !

Yeah it's kind of strange, from checking out their socials, it seems their supposed "multiverse" goes way beyond TV or fiction and involves business in a strange way, or to quote their website

An ecosystem that combines games, earnings, and virtual reality

We are developing a metaverse that integrates various products, business strategies, and game mechanics. Metaverse is your starting point in the journey through the Holiverse ecosystem.

Metaverse is a play-to-earn metaverse where you can live, learn, start your own business, build, try new things, and earn real money.

Immerse yourself in the game process, spend time with pleasure, meet old friends or make new ones, and realize your ambitions!

There's also a bit of new age stuff, but not in the best way (I hope I'm way off but I even imagine a cult could be behind this)...

Kevin Spacey Directed a Supernatural Action-Thriller in Which He Stars Alongside Dolph Lundgren, Tyrese Gibson and Eric Roberts (EXCLUSIVE)
https://variety.com/2025/film/global/ke ... 236407908/

Kevin Spacey has directed his first feature film in more than 20 years.

Variety understands that the two-time Oscar winning actor — who fell from grace in Hollywood following multiple accusations of sexual misconduct — has directed a supernatural action-thriller in which he stars alongside Dolph Lundgren (“Rocky IV,” The Expendables”), Tyrese Gibson (the “Fast & Furious” franchise, “Morbius”), Brianna Hildebrand (“Deadpool,” “Lucifer”), Disha Patani (“Kalki 2898 AD,” “Bharat”) and Eric Roberts (“Runaway Train,” “The Righteous Gemstones”).

The indie film, which has the working title of “Holiguards,” is planned to be the first in a franchise known as “Statiguards vs. Holiguards” and also stars Harry Goodwins (“The Gentlemen”), Swen Temmel (“The Clean Up Crew”) and Sonia Pim Couling (“Operation Bloodhunt”). It also marks the first feature to be produced by Elledgy Media, owned by Portugal-based Ukrainian entrepreneur Elvira Gavrilova Paterson.

As per the description, “Holiguards” is set against the backdrop of a near-future world fractured by hidden supernatural forces, where two ancient warrior factions — the Holiguards and the Statiguards — wage a secret war for control of humanity’s fate. Amid this conflict, a young woman discovers that she’s the daughter of two rival leaders and could end the conflict. Meanwhile, a Statiguard strategist prepares a catastrophic attack in Paris using a nuclear device and an army of mind-controlled civilians, channeling energy from a cosmic portal to awaken an ancient force known as the Prime.

The film, which has a budget of around $10 million, shot in Mexico last year and is now in post-production. Elledgy Media Group produces “Holiguards” alongside Lado Film. Producers include Paterson, Vadim Vadim Degtyarev and Vitaly Kucherov. The script was written by Sergey Torchilin and Lado Okhotnikov. Variety hears a trailer was being screened to potential interested parties at this year’s Cannes Film Festival.

It was actually in Cannes where Spacey made his boldest return to the limelight since his career nosedived in the wake of the MeToo scandal, and since he was found not guilty of multiple allegations of sexual misconduct in a high-profile court trial in 2023. The actor — whose last trip to the south of France during the festival was in 2016 — hit the carpet at several events, most notably the amfAR gala dinner and also the Better World Fund gala, where he was given a lifetime achievement award and, in a fiery 10-minute speech, took aim at his own blacklisting from Hollywood, declaring that it was “nice to be back.”

“Holiguards” wasn’t the only film of Spacey’s in Cannes. The actor was also in town to help promote the British indie “The Awakening,” a conspiracy action-thriller in which he appears as the head of sinister global cabal that controls the world, which was selling in the market.

Well, I’d rather watch this than EXIT PROTOCOL.

[bomaz]

I really don't know what to do about these new informations
Is it a film ? is it a TV series ? they don't seem sure.
And the plot sounds preposterous.
Not gonna mention Kevin Spacey.

Well, in the article it says it's a film. But could be a pilot film ... Who knows. Overall, nice cast, but the movie being made by Kevin Spacey ://

[Jox]

Back in December, DL told me it was a TV pilot, so yes there seems to be confusion on what this is: the first of a movie franchise or the pilot for a series... The connection with their "Holiverse" thing is foggy too.

In any case I'm not sure this is gonna go further than the installment, even though the producers seem to have access to a lot of cash...

I still find it hard to believe that Spacey would be the director on this.

[preacher]

I thought this was a crypto/nft-scam or a money laundering scheme. Or both.
Still not sure.

Har de to believe Spacey actually directed this. I mean there where lots of bts pix and video and he was nowhere. Just remember him being in one random pic from some club or party during filming.

Just strange this.

Here is the one pic from set

What's for sure is there nothing exciting or interesting publicly known in DL's roster at the moment (even if he gets to make his next directorial project soon, it would take like 2 years before it comes to us)...

This post is in honor of the trailer premiere of our film “Holiguards” at the Cannes Film Festival.

But today, I want to thank Kevin Spacey.

First of all — for agreeing to work with me. It’s an honor. I continue to admire this extraordinary actor, a two-time Academy Award winner, and I truly believe more are coming — a third, a fourth, and beyond. Kevin is not just a brilliant actor and director. He’s gifted in everything he does.

He plays tennis with passion. He dances with soul. He’s an incredible conversationalist — sharp, witty, and genuine. He’s kind. He’s thoughtful. He’s noble.

I’m grateful we have the chance to work together.
Kevin, thank you for your trust and for taking this journey with me. Big hug — and I can’t wait for what we’ll create next.
