The progress made on director Jesse Quiñones’s upcoming new fight thriller, Cagefighter: Worlds Fighter, asserts a major case in point for the effort made toward its development and evident production dating back to 2014.
Calloused Hands helmer Jesse Quinones is taking to the octagon for Cagefighter according to several reports ahead of European Film Market in February. He’ll direct from his own script that has Josh Herdman, Michael Jai White, and Bound and Face/Off actress Gina Gershon starring along with Michelle Ryan and Welcome To The Punch actor Jason Maza.
A new trailer has been unveiled for the forthcoming premiere of the second season of digital series, Cleaners. The show is one of a handful of series of multi-genre programs launched by Crackle, a unit of Sony Pictures Television, since its announcement last May with its premiere six months later.
A cast of returning and new faces headline the new season featuring the action-packed misadventures of two sexy contract killers, played by actress and show producer Emmanuelle Chriqui and actress Emily Osment. A press release for the show was issued back in January ahead of the show’s filming on-location in Puerto Rico, with all casting, crew and plot info as follows:
Following the first action packed season, Emmanuelle Chriqui (“Entourage”), Emily Osment (“Hannah Montana”), David Arquette (SCREAM), and Gina Gershon (“Rescue Me,” FACE/OFF) return for a second season and double the punch with 12, half-hour episodes premiering on Crackle and across all Crackle applications in 2014.
The first season followed two gorgeous young women (Emmanuelle Chriqui, Emily Osment) who turn out to be a team of highly trained and lethal contract killers. While on an errand for their boss (Gershon), the job goes bad and the duo quickly find themselves as the target of their boss’ client, the FBI (Arquette) – and even their own boss – whose team of assassins is now out to eliminate them. Season 2 opens on a Caribbean island two weeks after the end of season one. Veronica (Chriqui) and Roxie (Osment) realize they have not escaped their past just yet… The female assassins find themselves trying to take down a major drug cartel and are entangled in the trappings of Mother (Gershon), who is trying to hunt them down. All the while, Agent Barnes (Arquette) is on a mission to take down Mother.
New characters played by Esai Morales as Father Brooks, Omar Avila as Carlos, and David Rees Snell as Phillips, John Savage as Marcus Walker and Mimi Rogers as Isabelle Walker, add more twists to the thrilling plot for an all-new 12 episodes uncovering secrets, lies and ulterior motives.
The second season, written and directed by Paul Leyden (THE FACTORY), brings back executive producers Sam Worthington (AVATAR, CLASH OF THE TITANS), Emmanuelle Chriqui, John Schwarz (“McLeod’s Daughters”), Michael Schwarz (OLIVER TWIST) and Luca Scalisi (TAILCHASER’S SONG, EMINEM: LIVE FROM NEW YORK CITY).
Cleaners premieres its second season on August 19. Watch the trailer below and head over to Crackle.com for all the specs you need on the show and much more!
