Sony to distribute sci-fi blockbuster Rogue Warrior : Robot Fighter

"Tracey Birdsall joins the ranks of legendary sci-fi leading ladies like Linda Hamilton and Sigourney Weaver with her multifaceted performance in Rogue Warrior: Robot Fighter. Birdsall's portrayal of Sienna—the film's tough, smart, and sexy heroine—is enthralling."—Jeff Berkwits, SCI FI Magazine

Hotly anticipated science fiction title ROGUE WARRIOR : ROBOT FIGTHER to be distributed by Sony. The film unites celebrated writer-director Neil Johnson with award-winning actress Tracey Birdsall in a complex science-fiction actioner described as MAD MAX meets STAR WARS.

Starring alongside Birdsall are William Kircher (The Hobbit), Daz Crawford (“Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.”), Stephen Manley (Star Trek III), and Marilyn Ghiggliotti (Clerks).

ROGUE WARRIOR : ROBOT FIGHTER last week won numerous awards at the Malibu West International Film Awards, including Best Actress (Tracey Birdsall), Best  Director (Neil Johnson), Sound Design (Vic Kaspar, Dirk Kloiber) and the Unique Vision award (Neil Johnson).

The festival has been around for 6 years now and some pretty cool films have won at this place.

Sony will distribute ROGUE WARRIOR : ROBOT FIGHTER in 2017. A TV series spin-off is also in the works.

WHAT IF HITLER TRAVELED BACK THROUGH TIME?

 

Birdsall, Corbin doing time-traveling Hitler sci-fi THE TIME WAR!

 

Award-winning actors Tracey Birdsall and Barry Corbin are filming The Time War, writer-director Neil Johnson’s long gestating science-fiction thriller that went into development back in 2010. The film features the legendary Christopher Lee (Lord of the Rings, Star Wars : Attack of the Clones) in one of his final screen roles.

Originally written in 1995, The Time War fixes on the thrilling, entertaining scenario that imagines Adolf Hitler travelling back in time and rewriting history. “Next imagine you try and stop him and make matters much worse…”

Birdsall, who this year stars in Johnson’s highly-anticipated Rogue Warrior : Robot Fighter, is a favorite of Neil Johnson.

“Tracey is one of the most versatile and talented actresses of our times. She’s going to blow everyone away with her performance in Rogue Warrior: Robot Fighter, so we wanted to keep the party going – and excitement from the audience to see more of her – by fashioning this follow-up as a real showcase for her.”

Johnson is also a long-time fan of acclaimed actor Corbin, whose many credits include The Thorn Birds, No Country for Old Men, Norma Raeand TV hits Northern Exposure and Anger Management.
“This is a man that can do anything – evoke great laughter, spur tears, have you rooting for him - and audiences are going to go nuts for him here. We’ve written a fantastic part for Barry.”

For Corbin, it’s a return to the sci-fi genre. The Texas-born actor’s previous genre efforts include such classics as WarGames and Critters 2 and TV’s The Twilight Zone.

Birdsall and Corbin worked together on Dawn of the Crescent Moon - which snared the coveted Best Ensemble Cast Award at Action on Film Festival, rapidly becoming one of the most reputable independent film festivals in the world.

Filmmaker Johnson was so sure that the film would get made one day that in November of 2010, he paid Sir Christopher Lee to record an opening narration while at Abbey Road studios on other business.  Johnson didn’t realize that this would be the last time that he would see the acclaimed actor, who passed in 2015.

"Mr Lee had killed a number of Nazis during WW2, so it was very apt that the great Nazi Hunter gave his great talent to this wonderfully unique film,” said Johnson.
Additional casting to be announced.

"HOBBIT" STAR JOINS THE CAST OF ROGUE WARRIOR: ROBOT FIGHTER

William Kircher (THE HOBBIT) has joined the cast of the science-fiction actioner ROGUE WARRIOR : ROBOT FIGHTER, which wraps this week under the director of Neil Johnson.

Kircher (Bifur the dwarf in Peter Jackson's HOBBIT films) plays Dr. Johnson Additionally, his voice can be heard throughout the movie as The Scourge.

Says director Neil Johnson, "For the first time in my career, I can truly say that the whole film is crammed with truly amazing actors, no one disappoints, but now  that we have William Kircher, he is the icing on a very large cake. 

Tracey Birdsall and William Kircher light the screen up with an amazing chemistry.  I was so enthralled watching these two acting titans butt-heads on camera that I forgot we were shooting a movie and got dragged into the scene.

There is a scene at the end of the film where Tracey and William oppose each other and truly make for an amazing moment.  I am so looking forward to having these two work together again in the future.  I think the only reason we got a busy actor of William’s stature was that he really wanted to work opposite Tracey Birdsall, one of the few good looking actresses in Hollywood WHO CAN ACTUALLY ACT!!!!”

                        ROGUE WARRIOR : ROBOT FIGHTER will be released later this year.

FIRST TRAILER FOR "WHO'S JENNA...?" COMING FALL 2016 TO THEATERS

Coming Spring 2016, Who’s Jenna…? is a riotously funny but super sweet rom-com about a man whose new girlfriend (AOFF award winner Tracey Birdsall) looks suspiciously like a famous porn star.

Jonathan Burke (Bill Sorvino), a successful financial advisor, starts dating Jenna Casey (Birdsall), an accomplished lawyer.  Jonathan’s best friend, Andy Roma (Joseph D’Onofrio) is convinced she looks exactly like a famous adult film star.

Not only does Jonathan have to deal with his friend’s nonsense, but he also has to juggle his relationship with his boss (Garry Pastore), who is possibly black-mailing him, and is Jenna’s brother in-law.

A case of mistaken identity creates a whirling storm of comical chaos in Jonathan’s world.

Joining Birdsall are The Soprano’s Vincent Pastore, Bill Sorvino, Joseph D’Onofrio, Vic Dibitetto and Garry Pastore.
Some fun cameos are in tow, too.

TRACEY BIRDSALL HAS BEEN CASTED FOR SUPERNATURAL FLICK "DANCE OF THE BLUE TATTOO"

Award winning actress Tracey Birdsall (The Young & The Restless, Rogue Warrior : Robot Fighter) has been cast opposite The Blacklist’s Harry Lennix in Dance of the Blue Tattoo.

Del Weston directs from a script by award winning screenwriter Matt DeGennaro.

Mia Goldman (Birdsall), possessed by superior agility, strength and beauty, is driven by an incomprehensible, subconscious urge to travel south to the Yucatan. Surprised by a series of strange messages and disturbing events, she realizes a power greater than her own has changed her pleasure trip to heal from a nasty divorce into a dangerous, supernatural journey into the Mayan underworld and Fifth dimension.       

                 
                     Furthermore Mia, formerly oblivious to her extra-terrestrial lineage, discovers she's no longer just a pleasure seeking, divorced female from New Jersey, but the Last Celestial from an ancient, extra-terrestrial race who can change human destiny and save humans from total destruction.  She overcomes her fear of being sacrificed, does what's necessary to save humanity and fall in love again.

                      Birdsall’s character is described as “beautiful, buff, coy, a skilled martial artist and former MMA champion with long, flowing, blond hair and penetrating, blue eyes”.

Rudy Youngblood (Apocalypto) co-stars.

Set to shoot on the island of Gran Canaria, Dance of the Blue Tattoo is currently in pre-production with a release date to be announced in the New Year.

Birdsall next appears in the science-fiction thriller Rogue Warrior : Robot Fighter and the controversial comedy Who’s Jenna?
