Chuck Hank and the San Diego Twins Teaser Trailer: Press Release: “Los Angeles, CA: (January 20, 2017) Today, Coatwolf Productions, released the first teaser trailer for their new film Chuck Hank and the San Diego Twins. The much-anticipated follow-up from the creators of the Sundance hit Bellflower is inspired by side-scrolling video games and 1980’s style action films.

The film is written and helmed by first-time director, Jonathan Keevil and is the sophomore project from Coatwolf founder Evan Glodell who is producing the project and also playing the title character of ChuckHank. In addition to Glodell, the film also stars Keevil and Bellflower co-star Tyler Dawson who play the San Diego Twins. Rounding out the cast is David Arquette (Scream), Troian Bellisario (Pretty Little Liars), Michael Pare (Streets of Fire), Olivia Taylor Dudley (The Magicians) and legendary MMA fighters Don Frye and Josh Barnett.

“Like many of our generation, we spent so much of our childhood playing these side-scrolling, beat-em-up video games that they shaped a huge part of our reality,” says Glodell. “And I think the entire team have created a truly insane film that brings that reality to life”

“We set out to recreate and pay homage to iconic sequences from fighting video games from the 1980s and 1990s but we wanted to also tell a compelling story about brotherhood and family,” said Jonathan Keevil. “Through a lot of blood, sweat, and tears we were able to create exactly that.”

Shot on location in Ventura, CA by Independent Spirit Award nominated cinematographer, Joel Hodge. Production of the film was jump started by a successful Indiegogo crowd-funding campaign. The Coatwolf team, who are known for their practical, hands-on approach to filmmaking, continued their DIY mantra in their new film. The team designed and created a number of their own special effects, pyrotechnics and custom vehicles. The lead actors also completed nearly all of their own stunts.

Producing the film for Coatwolf are Evan Glodell, Chelsea St John, Jonathan Keevil and Vincent Grashaw along with Gabriel Cowen and John Suits from New Artists Alliance. Additional producers include Dallas Sonnier, under his new banner Cinestate, and Jack Heller of Assemble Media. The film will be released this summer with final details to be announced soon.
