EXCLUSIVE: Ron Perlman (Hellboy), Peter Facinelli (The Twilight Saga) and Mark Elias (9-11: Lone Star) are starring in comedy-adventure We Could Be Heroes, which is soon to wrap in Ontario, Canada. The film follows “an unlikely wannabe detective who finds himself pulled into a very real mystery when a young gamer gets into trouble and turns to him for help recovering her stolen gaming rig. What begins as a seemingly straightforward favor quickly develops into a much bigger adventure.” Also starring are newcomer Serena Wong, Humberly Gonzalez (Ginny & George), Damian Romeo (Ginny & George), Sean Benson (The Boys), Pat Roach (The Trailer Park Boys), Jason Muse (Jay & Silent Bob) and WWE wrestler Chelsea Greene. Elias stars as Miles Bernstein and also wrote the screenplay. Emami is directing the feature and producing alongside Elias. Producers are Hank White, Ivan Williams and Mauricio Arrioja. The production is being produced under Golden Boy, LLC. Watch on Deadline “We Could Be Heroes is ultimately a story about ordinary people finding themselves in extraordinary circumstances,” said director Emami. “There is a lot of comedy in the film, but underneath that is a story about friendship, courage and discovering that you may be capable of more than you ever imagined.” “We wanted to make a movie that is entertaining, funny and completely accessible, while also tapping into a world that has become a huge part of modern culture,” said writer and star Mark Elias. “The characters are definitely not traditional heroes, which is exactly what makes their journey so much fun.”
