Arrow joins 100 Feet!

With
the Arrow (aka John Fallon) being my best friend, I have been privy
to this casting possibility for months now, but now that it’s been
made official, I am more than happy to announce it, as
John Fallon has been cast as ‘Jimmy’ in Eric Red’s latest feature
entitled 100
FEET
. The film will begin shooting in Hungary in a couple of weeks
and continue shooting through next month, with some work in NY as
well. John will join the shoot before and after his coverage of the
Cannes Film Festival, with yours truly, in the month of May.

I’m
super stoked for my friend and look forward to seeing this film more
than ever now. Check out what the writer/director Eric Red had to say about his latest
casting addition, as well as the Arrow himself further down below.
All the best, dudes!!

Eric
Red:
“The character John plays is Jimmy,
the Department Of Correction police technician who puts the
electronic ankle bracelet on Famke Janssen’s character Marnie and
tells her how it works. Jimmy is a tough but sympathetic internet
type cop guy who introduces the heroine to her home prison in the
beginning. John’s perfect casting and is going to be great.
He’s already done his homework and spent time with police in the
house arrest division for research on authenticity. Plus on a
personal note, it’s neat evolution of a long friendship having him
be in one of my pictures and it’s going to be a lot of fun working
together!”

John
Fallon:
"Consider
me a very happy camper on varied levels as to this acting gig. First
it’s the biggest role I’ve ever had in a big budget production.
Yes, I get more than two lines! Second; the bulk of my part is
opposite a fav of mine, actress Famke Janssen. I’ve loved her in
Goldeneye, City of

Industry

, House on a Haunted Hill, Lord of Illusions and of course, Deep
Rising, and it will be a joy for me to work with her. Finally and
more importantly, I’ll get to work with Eric Red in a new
capacity. Red was a major inspiration for me when I was younger via
his visceral and brilliant screenplays. He actually motivated me to
start writing in the first place. And now I get to be on set to
witness him do his magic. The term “full circle” can’t help
but come to my feeble mind. I’m beyond anxious and excited to see
Red take down the fort and to be part of it at that… I couldn’t
ask for more! Today is a good f*cking day!"
