Jaimie Alexander (“Blindspot”) will star opposite Wes Bently in psychological thriller “Blindspot”.
The film is directed by Bram Coppens and will premiere at AFM this November.
This fall’s hottest new series “Blindspot”, which captured 10.6 million domestic viewers for its season’s pilot, made waves at Mipcom, and has already been commissioned for a full 22 episodes on NBC with international sales on the boom. Its star, Jaimie Alexander (‘Lady Sif’ in Marvel’s “Thor”, “Thor 2: The Dark World” who herald #1 on IMDB’s star meter) is now starring opposite Wes Bentley (“The Hunger Games”, “Interstellar” “Knight of Cups” and “American Beauty”) in a new psychological thriller that will have its world premiere screening at the AFM.
BROKEN VOWS tells the story of Patrick (Wes Bentley), who seduces Tara (Jaimie Alexander) and becomes instantly infatuated with her beauty. However, Patrick’s charm and charisma masks a profound psychosis. When Tara, regretting her decision, rejects Patrick, he is sent spiraling into madness, delusion and obsession bent on bringing Tara back or brutally destroying what he loves most. This film revolves around how one moment, one night, one mistake could stay with you forever.
Written by James Agnew and Sean Keller (Rage), BROKEN VOWS marks the feature debut of award-winning Belgium commercial director Bram Coppens. The film is produced by Wendy Benge (“Life of Crime”, “Life after Beth”) together with Executive Producer Larry Ladove (“Lee Daniels’ The Butler”, “Life of Crime”). The film was financed by Stonecreek Films and produced by Bullet Entertainment.
Additional cast includes Cam Gigandet (“Twilight”, “The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn – Part 2”) who plays Tara’s fiancé while Alex Ladove (“Life of Crime”, “Lee Daniels’ The Butler”) plays Tara’s younger sister who becomes a pawn in Patrick’s dark plans. Alexandra Breckenridge (“American Horror Story” and “The Walking Dead”) and Belgium star Astrid Bryan play the roles of Tara’s best friends and conscience.
“We are very excited to be having the world premiere screening of BROKEN VOWS at the AFM this year. Jaimie Alexander is not only hot off the press in Marvel’s blockbuster “Thor” films, with its third instalment to debut in 2017, but she is the hottest actress of the fall TV season this year. We were mesmerized by her performance and interplay with Wes Bentley,” says Cinema Management Group (CMG) president, Edward Noeltner.
“Jaimie’s strong persona and Bentley’s intensity has made for a dynamic, suspenseful thriller” says producer, Wendy Benge. “The film teases the mind, pushes its limits on questions surrounding how much would you risk to hide the truth, to forgive, to let go.
We were excited when Benjamin Weiss and Meghan Oliver of Paradigm brought CMG into the fold. CMG was not only passionate about the film but they really appreciated the quality and suspense that we were able to bring to the screen. We are very excited to be working with Edward, his dynamic team and Paradigm moving forward.”
Paradigm Talent Agency’s Benjamin Weiss and Meghan Oliver represented Bullet Entertainment in closing the deal with CMG and are handling the film for North America.
