EMILEE got cast in the lead role of Laura in THE PASSENGERS, a post-apocalyptic, existential drama. THE PASSENGERS is
written and directed by NOAH ROSS and will be filming throughout April/May of 2009 in Phoenix, AZ.
THE PASSENGERS is a story about Paul (played by BENJAMIN BURT), an unambitious man, separated from his wife, and possibly looking for a new relationship to make a mess of. Unfortunately, one late afternoon, everyone in the city exited whatever building they happened to be in, stood rigidly facing a wall, and began to sway back and forth. Everyone except Paul. Reluctant to abandon those he loves to look for more unaffected persons, Paul decides to stay and help the people he holds dear. Over the next seven days in Paul's life, we watch him try to understand what is happening medically, spiritually, and philosophically, all while trying to retain some semblance of normalcy in his life. He seeks out Laura, the woman he had hoped to start a relationship with. Ultimately Paul must decide whether to stay in this strange limbo or to move on and discover what has become of the rest of the world.
Mar, 25, 2009:EMILEE joins the cast of A SPIDER'S WEB, a drama about a tenacious detective, who is determined to discover the truth behind an acquitted murder case, suspects that everything may not be how it appeared. His skepticism is manipulated through an interrogation of the murder's girlfriend, Lacey Snyder. The detective learns through the lives of three young gentlemen how fragile life really is, and how attached everyone can be in this drug driven world; given that the collection of these individuals actions were interwoven with their next, ultimately producing undesirable outcomes.
EMILEE plays Rebecca Johnson , a naïve and innocent young girl who leans on Casey Meyers, her boyfriend (played by RICHARD ANDERSON), and her friends for everything. Casey, at first, is an extremely laid back stoner without a care in the world. He does not respond well to “harder” drugs beyond marijuana, but throughout the story continues to experiment with them until addiction takes hold. This leads him to slowly but progressively go crazy, and ultimately leads to his death.
Filming of A SPIDER'S WEB will start April, 4th, 2009 in Phoenix, AZ.
