Here we go Frans! (Because to us, all of you are not just fans—you’re friends.) Welcome to the next evolution in all things Ethereal!
We have been laying low recently due to matters out of our
hands, but we wanted to not only share what we are up to, but give you
all the chance to help in this huge next step as we enter film
production for Theater 7!
Theater 7 started as a hit comic book series. Out of that universe emerged Penny—a true fran favorite and one of the very few characters to star in two ongoing titles.
The movie is the next step for this iconic character. We are bringing everything you know and love from the comic book into the world of film with a dark, twisted edge. Think you know Penny? You don’t know the half of it.
‘When a depressed film buff takes a job at a reopening local theater, she finds herself trapped into a supernatural gauntlet of horror genres orchestrated by the undead theater owner - forcing her to evolve from a lost soul into the ultimate final girl.’
Why We Are Seeking Assistance
Bringing a feature film to life takes a village. We are launching this campaign to finalize all the beautiful pieces coming together in our ether—from our incredible lead cast to a proven multi-award-winning director taking the helm, alongside a screenplay written by a New York Times Bestselling ghostwriter.
Those pieces include:
-Securing
locations;
-Equipment;
-Cast and crew;
-All the bits
and pieces needed to bring this to life!
We have been in communication with many professionals to come on
board. This will allow us to secure their involvement.
Planning to shoot in Southern Vermont next summer due to vast connections in the area, we look to utilize the beautiful area as well as the Latchis Theater in downtown Brattleboro.
(Note for serious investors and prospective partners: An official, comprehensive pitch deck is available upon request.)
A very large point is that will be a union film.
The Ethereal Stars
The film will star a powerhouse lineup of Ethereal Girls with more to be announced shortly!
