TO DISTRIBUTE SUSPENSE THRILLER,

Los Angeles CA - January 16, 2015 - InvestorsHub
NewsWire - Sycamore
Entertainment Group, Inc., today announced it has signed a deal
with Dreamline Pictures for the North American distribution rights
to the suspense thriller Unsullied, the first feature film
written and directed by former NFL star Simeon Rice. Rice, a
four-time All-Pro linebacker who was a member of the 2003 Super
Bowl champion Tampa Bay Buccaneers, is a graduate of the New York
Film Academy and co-founder of Dreamline Pictures.
Unsullied
was produced by
Dreamline’s John Nodilo, Michelle Gracie and Ghana Cooper. Nodilo
and Rice share story and screen writing credits. The film stars
newcomer and UCLA film school alum Murray Gray, together with CAA
actor Rusty Joiner (Dodgeball, Resident Evil) and James
Gaudioso (Duke, The Ghost and The Whale).
Sycamore Entertainment plans to release the film in theaters across
the U.S. on Sept. 4, 2015.
“Simeon’s commitment to
independent film is parallel to our corporate mandate to support
and nurture the independent film makers,” said Edward Sylvan, CEO
of Sycamore Entertainment. “We are thrilled to be working with
Simeon . His skills as a writer
and director reflect the same energy and passion he was known for
on the football field.”
Loosely based on
true events, Unsullied tells the story of Reagan Farrow, a
talented young athlete grieving over the tragic loss of her older
sister, whose memory and inspiration help Reagan survive her own
life-and-death struggle. The film was shot on location in Tampa,
Fla. by cinematographer Scott Winig, best known for his
award-winning music videos for Grammy-winning artists including
Willie Nelson, Lil' Wayne and T.I.
“Making this film was a
dream come true for me, and being able to work with the team at
Sycamore is the perfect fit,” said Rice. “I’m very proud of
everyone who contributed to this project, from the cast to my
producers and all the post-production partners we worked with –
it’s extremely exciting knowing that it will have a theatrical
release this year.”
Sycamore
distributed “The Eye of the Storm,” starring Academy Award winner
Geoffrey Rush, as one of the first successful day-and-date releases
in the marketplace, and executive produced the top-rated “Battle of
the Strands” on Discovery Fit & Health
Channel . For more information on
