The new update has been released with the following news:
Goodbye Leonard!
After three weeks, the production waved goodbye to the small town of 2,095 and headed for the streets of Big D! It was a huge company move. The headquarters for the production company was graciously provided by First Baptist Church. It was where the cast changed clothes and completed all makeup transitions, before dispersing to one of many Leonard shoot locations. It is also where the entire cast and crew were well fed by the culinary talents of Shorty’s Texas Catering, with tasty morning breakfasts by Pastor Rob Gore. We will miss the people of Leonard. They were very hospitable and opened their city up to an unknown entity called ‘Beyond’. We will miss Robin and her family at the motel, the DQ, the police, Eddie, Anne Robinson and countless other folks. This wonderful little town is the heart of “Beyond The Farthest Star.” There is so much character and warmth in this city northeast of the metroplex. The story would not be the same without your gift to us. (See the new Behind The Scenes video, “Shooting The Wells’ House” on the site and pictured above.)
View The Todd Terry Interview Now!
Now you can view our first cast interview at BeyondTheFarthestStar.com! Todd Terry stars as Adam Wells in the film. Todd, who was the producers’ local choice for the role, had to step in at the last minute and replace the lead actor from Los Angeles. It was a huge undertaking but Todd tackled the role and our film is stronger due to his powerful performance. Renee O’Connor, playing Maurene Wells, and Todd have dynamic synergy on screen and are the center of the story. Todd also was the lead in Pathlight Entertainment’s award winning, “Still Born” and he took home the Best Actor award for his performance at the 2009 Project 168 competition. Todd has chosen to stay in the Texas area with his family, instead of pursuing a career in Los Angeles but has worked constantly at his craft. He is known for roles in the critically praised, “Arlington Road” with Tim Robbins, the villain in “Cadillac Jack” and the recent independent film, “Fissure.” He also just finished roles in series, “Breaking Bad” and “Friday Night Lights.” When he isn’t acting, Todd runs a real estate business in Dallas.
