The Baltimorons star Liz Larsen, Dennis Boutsikaris and Zack Robidas have nabbed lead roles in How to Rob director’s Peter Horgan next movie, Play the Edge.
Horgan’s sophomore crime feature follows a recently demoted pizza chef who plans a Christmas Eve robbery to get back at his boss, only to win the lottery just as the armed robbers he hired are about to arrive. The holiday thriller set in Cape Cod, Massachusetts, and to shoot locally, will see what happens when the chef tries to put the brakes on a crime already in motion, according to a synopsis from the producers.
Production will center on the historic Orpheum movie theater in downtown Chatham, on the tip of Cape Cod, which includes a local Pizza Shark restaurant. The ensemble cast for Play the Edge includes Lance A. Williams, Katie Silverman and Josh Koopman.
The indie film is produced by Becca E. Davis, Mike Hansen and Kathrene Gawel, and is executive produced by Ian Brownell, Todd Remis, Larsen and Robidas. Horgan’s debut feature How to Rob, also an indie crime movie, saw Chinaza Uche (Silo) and Koopman portray a two-man stick-up crew robbing criminals from Boston to Cape Cod. That’s before they face assassins hunting them for retribution over a past robbery.
Larsen is repped by CESD Talent Agency, and Boutsikaris is repped by AKA Artists. Robidas is repped by Buchwald; Williams is repped by Mike Griffin at Luber Roklin Entertainment and Arise Artists; and Silverman is repped by Bonnie Shumofsky at Stewart Talent and Sherry Kayne at Rebel Creative Group.
