In other news, it seems to be called HELLFIRE, filmed in Little Rock, Arkansas, and rumor has it that Harvey Keitel is in it :o

https://arktimes.com/rock-candy/2022/08 ... -this-week
If you dodge some intermittent closures, you could grab a local brew on the set of a feature film this week. Diamond Bear Brewing announced this morning on its social media that it was serving as the location for the production of a feature film including “some major actors.” (Local industry insiders say it’s called “Hellfire,” and that the cast includes Harvey Keitel and Dolph Lundgren.)

Storyline: The small, dying, rural Southern town of Rondo is being held hostage by a deadly, politically well-connected drug trafficking monster, but a mysterious stranger who refers to himself simply as the MAN, may provide hope for the town's terrified residents. These people are exhausted, worn down and afraid, and should look so.

BREAKDOWN: (All roles are open ethnicity)

[ANTONIO] 30s, a hardworking family man, he is honored, gracious and hospitable when the Man, a former Green Beret, asks for some food as payment for any handyman chores that need doing. He speaks candidly with the Man of the constant fear he and his family must face in their small town...SUPPORTING.

[RANDAL] 50s, he is a shopkeeper in the small town of Rondo, tortured mercilessly when he contacts the authorities about the Whitfields' drug trafficking operation...1 speech & 5 lines, 5 scenes.

[DR. SAM WHALEN] 60s, also a pawn of the drug traffickers, this small town doctor is on board when the Man comes up with plan to save the community. However, terrified for his life when the bad guys show up, he turns traitor, spilling the beans on his fellow townsfolk...1 speech & 3 lines, 4 scenes.

[ROSA] Early 30s. She is Antonio's wife, mother of a young boy. Toughly self-protective, she immediately grabs for her rifle when the Man shows up, hungry but willing to work. Later, impressed by the Man's graciousness, her attitude softens...2 speeches & 4 lines, 2 scenes.

[RUFUS] This mangy old man is the laconic desk clerk at the only hotel in town...4 lines, 3 scenes.

[JORGE] 9, he is Antonio and Lena's bright, friendly son, intrigued by the mysterious stranger who's looking to fix the broken porch swing...5 lines, 1 scene. NOTE: Does not have to be 9, but be able to play 9.

[TOM AND BONNIE] Residents of Rondo, this middle-aged couple lives in fear of the drug traffickers who have taken the whole town hostage...1 line, 4 scenes each.

This got a lot more exciting now! Isaac Florentine is a great director, and Dolph killing people with an axe while driving a bike is already enough reason to watch this day one :lol:

The biggest worry here is probably the writer for me. Seized was decent, but nothing special story wise, and he's written plenty of other (to put it nicely) not so good stuff.

Dolph just confirmed Harvey Keitel (never thought that team-up would happen one day) plus Stephen Lang.

With his mustache and short fair hair, D also seems to sport every look possible in this flick…!

Nice to hear Keitel and Lang confirmed for this. Little worrying about the amount of days Lundgren is filming if he's having surgery next week.

If the info from the casting call linked above is correct ("Shoot Dates: On or about August 26th-Sept. 10th"), principal photography is supposed to wrap this Saturday so it's a really quick shoot... :?


EDIT:
Actress Natalie Canerday (ONE FALSE MOVE, SLING BLADE) seems to be in it as well.

Hopefully they got something great in the bag in the short time they had. Dolph has worked with bigger names in the last 10-15 years than at the peak of his 90's career.

Cool for Canerday (Sling Blade is a personal favorite of mine).
Here's Dolph getting out of a police car.
And Keitel's look in the movie (I get that Dolph couldn't pass the opportunity to share the screen with Keitel).

So according to a little digging, there's another project aside from HELLFIRE called SHOWDOWN AT THE ODESSA that just wrapped yesterday, and I think that's where the shots of DL in black and blond wigs come from...

And it seems to co-star Terence Howard and John Savage.

Logline:
https://www.imdb.com/title/tt18115690/reference/
A proud movie theater owner must defend his family business from corporate developers alongside a legendary action star as art imitates life in a showdown for the ages.

Producer: CHRISTIAN DE GALLEGOS

Film distribution veteran Christian de Gallegos is currently producing a slate of elevated genre films tailored for global audiences. [...] action bonanza SHOWDOWN AT THE ODESSA starring Oscar nominee Terrence Howard and action legend Dolph Lundgren.


Also it's making me think Dolph's part in HELLFIRE is much smaller than expected and Stephen Lang is the lead in that one...(?)
