Talented Team of Producers and Directors for Poker Film
A new family film set in the world of poker, scheduled to begin shooting in Los Angeles and Las Vegas this spring, looks set to see a full house of talent appear in front of and behind the cameras.
The film will be executive produced by Garry Marshall and Hector Elizondo. Randy Feldman and Brad Neufeld will produce from their script in association with poker impresarios Mark and Lisa Tenner. Scott Marshall, who recently helmed 'Keepin Up With The Steins,' is set to direct.
The movie tells the story of a talented 15-year-old who qualifies for a $10-million dollar poker tournament at a major Las Vegas Hotel. The 15-year-old convinces his mother to play in his place and, through a series of extraordinary circumstances, the young man is allowed to play at the final table against many of the superstars of poker.
In addition to executive producing, Elizondo is set to co-star as the casino manager with a heart. The producers are in the process of casting the leading lady role.
