ARC Entertainment Acquires Family Drama 'Phantom Halo,' Starring Rebecca Romijn
"Phantom Halo" follows two brothers, played by Thomas Brodie-Sangster and Luke Kleintank, who struggle to survive while their father gambles and drinks.
ARC Entertainment has acquired all US rights to the crime thriller "Phantom Halo," the debut film from Antonia Bogdanovich, who co-wrote the film with Anne Heffron. "Phantom Halo" stars Thomas Brodie-Sangster ("The Maze Runner"), Rebecca Romijn ("X-Men"), Luke Kleintank ("Dark House"), Sebastian Roché ("A Walk Among the Tombsones"), Tobin Bell ("Saw II"), and Clare Grant ("Walk the Line").
"Phantom Halo" follows brothers Samuel (Brodie-Sangster) and Beckett (Kleintank), who struggle to survive while their father gambles and drinks. They find reprieve in comic books and Shakespeare -- but when Beckett tries to make some money to pay off his father's debts by counterfeiting, things take a turn for the worse.
"This is a searing and original family drama, brilliantly acted and directed. I'm very proud of my daughter," said Peter Bogdanovich ("The Last Picture Show"), who produced the film. The deal was announced today by ARC Entertainment's Head of Acquisitions, Scott Moesta.
ARC Entertainment will be releasing the film on VOD and in theaters on June 19.
