EXCLUSIVE: In Kapital Entertainment’s first foray into features, Aaron Kaplan’s indie studio has received a green light for One Mile and a sequel, starring and produced by Ryan Phillippe.
Shot back-to-back, both films will be distributed by Paramount Global Content Distribution. John Hlavin (Shooter) is writing and executive producing both One Mile and the sequel which were developed internally at Kapital.
They are based on an idea by Kaplan’s daughter, Jaiden Kaplan, who will serve as a producer. In One Mile, after his release from prison, a father (Phillippe) tries to reconnect with his daughter by taking her on a college tour, but they find themselves battling for more than their relationship when a murderous cult, living in the woods, pursues them.
Producing for Kapital are Aaron Kaplan, Brian Morewitz and Michael Lohmann. Kevin Marco is the executive in charge. Distribution plans for the movies are still TBD but I hear the films are intended for an initial theatrical run.
