LOST PHOENIX: James Couche’s New Indie Espionage Thriller Takes Off With An Official Trailer
About a year and some change since we initially brought word of filmmaker James Couche’s feature directing debut, Lost Phoenix, the film is now finally en route and is signaling folks with an official trailer this week which you can check out above. The film marks a debut role for actor and YouTuber Wan DraL, from a script by Couche who also has a hand in the film’s action sequences.
Couche previously circulated a short duration proof pitch to showcase to virtual markets last year as he prepared to roll cameras for the remainder of the film’s production. It centers on an amnesiac who awakens during the 2020 pandemic, forced to hit the ground running in a desperate search for his true identity while dodging ICE officials, heavily armed extremists, and a mysterious sniper watching from a distance.
Lost Phoenix marks a new milestone for Couche who also produced the pic via his Gunsavior Pictures banner, following years of building his online resume with a variety of shorts in the action, comedy and thriller genres. There aren’t any official social media pages up for the film just yet, save for Couche’s own Instagram page which you can sub to here.
