Hello, cherished supporters of 'The Reckoning'!
As the festive season envelops us in its warm embrace, we want to take a moment to wish each of you a Merry Christmas. Amidst the holiday cheer, we're thrilled to share some exhilarating updates from our journey in bringing 'The Reckoning' to life.
The Beginning of a Beautiful Journey: Cast Meet and Greet & Table Read
Our initial cast meet and greet on December 19th was a momentous occasion, marking the first chapter of our journey. The air buzzed with excitement as our talented ensemble, led by Daniel Lennox, Zach Hurley, and Deacon Grasty, came together, igniting the magic that is 'The Reckoning.' The table read that followed was a profound experience. Hearing the script read aloud for the first time truly brought the depth and emotion of the story into focus. The room was filled with a sense of camaraderie and anticipation, setting the tone for the incredible work ahead.
First Rehearsal: Bringing the Script to Life
As we delved into our first rehearsal and blocking session, the world of 'The Reckoning' began to take shape in the most extraordinary way. Watching the actors step into their roles, interpreting and giving life to their characters was nothing short of inspiring. The dedication and passion of everyone involved were palpable, each scene meticulously worked through to capture the essence of the narrative. It's clear that this film is not just a project but a passion for all involved.
Deacon Grasty's Captivating Monologue
A special highlight was Deacon Grasty recording the opening monologue in the studio. His portrayal of Samuel is already proving to be a heart-touching performance.
The depth and emotion he brought to the monologue were breathtaking, setting the stage for a character journey that promises to be both moving and memorable. It was a moment that reminded us all of the power of storytelling and the impact that a well-delivered line can have.
As we continue with the production, these early steps fill us with confidence and excitement for what's to come. A busy rehearsal schedule is planned for the cast and crew prior to the first day of filming which will take place in early January 2024. 'The Reckoning' is more than just a film; it's a story that we believe will resonate deeply with audiences, and we can't wait to share it with the world.
Thank you for your continued support and enthusiasm. We hope this holiday season brings you joy, peace, and plenty of reasons to smile.
Merry Christmas to you all, and here's to a new year filled with hope, happiness, and great storytelling!
Warm regards,
The Cast, Crew, and Executive Production Team
