Last Fall, I reteamed up with the main forces that brought you The Other Side of Darkness for a coming of age paranormal thriller, The Obsidian Mirror. The trailer drops today and I wanted to raise awareness and talk a bit about my experience.
Adam and Vinny reached out a year prior to ask me to read over a new script. It was exciting and ambitious. It featured 4 teen leads facing a horrible darkness. I connected right away as it gave me throwback, 80s, Spielberg vibes. But, I had no idea how they could pull off onscreen what was committed to paper.
Over the course of several drafts, they honed the story into fighting shape without losing the intensity, the mystique, or the charm, but I still had no idea how they’d pull it off.
Eventually, they floated the idea of me taking on a role and I agreed immediately. Having watched them work on The Other Side of Darkness, I knew it would be cool to get on that set, even if only for a couple of days. Turns out, the role was expanded and I got to watch a lot of really talented people up close and learn a ton.
Adam and Vinny are releasing the first trailer/images/website/merch today at obsidianmirrorfilm.com and I’m asking y’all to not only go watch the trailer, but if you dig it, please please please share it on your socialmedias to help word of mouth. The cast and crew worked hard and don’t have a big promo budget or PR people to raise awareness.
I’ll have more info and photos and stories as we get closer to the release of the movie, but for now I don’t want to share any visuals that production hasn’t shared first. Stop reading and go check out the website when it launches at noon today!
