Bray makes his debut from a script he wrote with WarParty’s own Joe Carnahan, set in East L.A. and centered on a cop drawn into the exploits of a mysterious crime fighting vigilante while investigating his ex-con brother’s death. Raúl Castillo stars along with George Lopez, Aimee Garcia, Emilio Rivera, David Castañeda, Marlene Forte, Jose Pablo Cantillo and Sal Lopez.
Carnahan is producing the film via his WarParty banner alongside Frank Grillo and producer Lorenzo di Bonaventura.
