DARCY FEHR to appear in BED REST

Darcy Fehr has completed filming a role in upcoming feature film, Bed Rest

After years of struggling to start a family, Julie Rivers (Barrera) is pregnant again and moving into a new home with her husband as they embrace a fresh start. Upon being ordered to mandatory bed rest, Julie begins to slowly unravel as she suffers through the monotony and anxiety of her new constraints. Soon, terrifying ghostly experiences in the home begin to close in on Julie, stirring up her past demons and causing others to question her mental stability. Trapped and forced to face her past and the supernatural, Julie fights to protect herself and her unborn baby.

Bed Rest is being produced by William Sherak, James Vanderbilt, and Paul Neinstein through their Project X banner, along with Evans Taylor and Barrera

STXfilms will release Bed Rest directly in the US, UK and Ireland, and in the rest of the world through its network of foreign distribution partners. STXinternational will introduce the film to buyers at the upcoming Virtual AFM next week.


Bed Rest is a chilling supernatural cinematic thriller,” said Adam Fogelson, chairman, STXfilms Motion Picture Group. “Lori Evans Taylor’s script was on the Black List for a reason: her compelling writing comes from a personal point of view we haven’t often seen on the big screen, and that will elevate the material. We’re also big believers in Melissa Barrera’s talent as an actress to bring this character to life. Horror has been a consistently successful genre for us at STX, and as a studio with a strong track record supporting female filmmakers, we are proud to be releasing Lori’s directorial debut. We’re also thrilled to be in business with William, James, Paul and the Team at Project X on a movie that will keep audiences riveted.”

Project X partners Sherak, Vanderbilt and Neinstein added, “We have known Lori both personally and professionally for years and have always been huge fans of her writing. This screenplay was so unnerving and deeply felt, we knew she was the right director to bring this to the screen. We had just worked with Melissa on Scream, where we saw her incredible talent first hand. We’re thrilled to have put them together, and that our longtime friends at STX will be our partners on this project. Their success with low and mid budget films and their commitment to female and diverse talent, both in front of and behind the camera, make them the ideal home for this film.”

The Burbank, CA-studio will be opening supernatural horror Bed Rest on July 15.

Baby-Sitters Club Season 2 Premiere – Oct 11 !!!

The Baby-Sitters Club Is Back!!

Watch TROY AMES in The Babysitters Club, which is back for a new season on Oct 11, 2021.


After the wildly successful first season of Netflix’s reboot of The Baby-Sitters Club, it was no surprise that the series would be renewed.
 

The Baby-Sitters Club is just as pure and charming in season 2.

Netflix’s good-hearted adaptation of the classic YA books digs deeper into the ever-complex relationships between its teen characters. Season 2 picks up where the Baby-sitters left off and thoughtfully deepens their relationships with each other and their families, bringing even more dimension and depth to an already exemplary family program. 
 

Created by Rachel Shukert, the coming-of-age series captures the spirited teens of Ann M. Martin’s popular books with incredible nuance.

It follows the friendship and adventures of seven friends as they start their own babysitting business in Stoneybrook, Connecticut. As demand for their club continues to grow, founders Kristy Thomas, Mary-Anne Spier, Claudia Kishi, Stacey McGill, and Dawn Schafer have now welcomed Mallory Pike and Jessi Ramsey to their ranks. With the new school year comes booming business, new relationships, personal journeys, and important lessons, but through it all the club is there for each other every step of the way.

The eight new half-hour episodes deepen the characters’ identities and friendships, making for an enlivening watch. 

Through its talented group of middle-schoolers, The Baby-Sitters Club tackles serious matters, from fear of abandonment to dealing with grief to peer and parental pressures. These issues are taken care of deftly and emotionally, without steering away from the show’s or the books’ innate lightheartedness. It helps that Martin is a producer and writer on the series.

The series continues to offer a realistic portrayal of teen girls’ interactions and day-to-day challenges with school, boys, and their families.
 
The Baby-Sitters Club:

• Sophie Grace as Kristy Thomas: The President
Momona Tamada as Claudia Kishi: The Vice-President
Malia Baker as Mary-Anne Spier: The Secretary
• Shay Rudolph as Stacey McGill: The Treasurer
• Kyndra Sanchez as Dawn Schafer: The Alternate Office Treasurer

 
Viewers will see two new babysitter faces in the series, Vivian Watson as Mallory Pike and Anais Lee as Jessi Ramsey.
 
Alicia Silverstone plays Elizabeth Thomas-Brewer  – Kristy’s mother,
and Mark Feuerstein plays Watson Brewer  – Elizabeth’s wealthy fiancé and later husband.
 
The Baby-Sitters Club is a delightful family show that celebrates female friendship, making it a must-watch for young teens.
