PATRIOTS GO TO HOLLYWOOD
The Patriots join the cast of the upcoming movie All's Faire In Love playing teammates and coaches of the lead role played by Owen Benjamin. The movies features such stars as Christina Ricci, Cedric the Entertainer, Ann Margret, Bill Engvall, and several other well known faces.
The movie is a love story comedy about a College Drama Student Quarterback (Owen Benjamin, The House Bunny) who battles with his future of acting or the NFL while falling for a new love interest (Ricci) he meets while working at the Renaissance Festival.
The Patriots join the cast as members of Owen's College Football Team seen practicing at Flint's Historic Atwood Stadium. Patriot staff members Leo & Brad Lyon play the team's coaches. The team will actually suit up wearing the Genesee County Patriot's uniforms and will also be seen wearing the Patriot logo.
In addition to his role as Coach, Brad Lyon will also be working with Owen Benjamin to consult on his Quarterback Play as well as other members of the cast who are playing various football player roles.
The film is a That's Hollywood/Patriots Pictures Production directed by Scott Marshall ("Keeping up with the Steins") and produced by Scott Reed and Ron Singer. The Patriots' Michael Mendelsohn is the Executive Producer who handles Casting and Financing of the project.
