Kicking off your Tuesday is a brand new action short piece from LBP Stunts Chicago independent action filmmaker Emmanuel Manzanares titled Extraction. Not to be confused with writer/director Tony Giglio’s latest work, Extraction is an original mini-project that focuses its plot on a rogue agent on the run from his pursuer.
Extraction reunites Manzanares with Canadian independent action film star Tyler Williams since their 2010 comedic action short, Manny Invades Toronto. Together, they are joined by actor and Thousand Pounds Action Company familiar Gui DaSilva, who lit up the internet quite a bit this summer performing with an ensemble cast for producer Travis Wong’s webseries, The Hunt.
Once more, Manzanares shows his incredible elevating potential once more in constructing innovative action sequences that continually look well-suited for much bigger films. And not for nothing either, being a multifaceted actor and filmmaker since 2007, with credits ranging from television and indie cinema, to performing stunts on the upcoming blockbuster sci-fi action adventure, Divergent.
That legacy of excellence he shares continues with today’s release of Extraction, as with future projects involving Williams who just re-emerged on Twitch last month with his 2012 film festival gritty action hit, All-In. Meanwhile, Manzanares and DaSilva will be making an ensemble appearance among a major handful of today’s biggest, brightest and gifted actors and screenfighters in Barrio Brawler co-star Dennis Ruel’s directorial feature debut, Unlucky Stars, later this year.
Stay tuned!
