Andrew James Bleidner, who plays the antagonist Ministro Santander, has recently appeared as Col. Robert Gould Shaw in the Fox television miniseries Legends & Lies: The Civil War. He was also in the 2015 Shia LeBeouf film Man Down.
During the first rehearsal, Director Ken Wolf gave the following feedback:
“So the first rehearsal went very well. We have a great and strangely PASSIONATE cast – we have a few actors with military backgrounds, and one actually from Norwich where Dewey went to school I believe which is cool. We are all very excited.
This is going to rock!”
The screenplay version won several awards in 2017 including: 1st Place Historical, Los Angeles Screenplay Contest; Special Jury Prize, Barcelona International Film Festival; Official Finalist, New York Screenplay Contest; Official Finalist, Hollywood Screenplay Contest.
