Adam Beach To Play Native American Fire Captain Paul Fullerton In New Film From Garry A. Brown
28.02.2024 - 21:45 / deadline.com
EXCLUSIVE: Adam Beach (The Power of the Dog) has signed on to star in an untitled new film, based on the true story of decorated Native American fire captain Paul Fullerton, which will be directed and produced by Garry A. Brown (Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.).
Shooting in Dallas, Texas, the film watches as Fullerton’s life and family are turned dangerously upside down when a career-ending accident draws him into the uncharted world of marijuana, and a local district attorney and his small group of rogue police take the law into their own hands. It was in 2016 that Fullerton and his wife Maricel’s home was raided by a multi-agency task force. The couple was targeted and unjustly accused of selling and distributing marijuana, the effects of which are still being felt in an ongoing court process today.
Brown developed and wrote the project with Natalie Dickinson. In addition to Brown, Robert Paschall Jr. and Sasha Yelaun will produce the feature, following collaborations on The Old Way starring Nicolas Cage and Nandor Fodor and the Talking Mongoose starring Simon Pegg. Fullerton is serving as executive producer.
Beach’s recent credits include Netflix’s Academy Award-nominated film The Power of the Dog as well as the Apple TV+ sci-fi drama Swan Song opposite Mahershala Ali and Naomi Harris. Other projects he’s known for include Netflix’s Juanita and 20th Century Studios’ The New Mutants.
A producer and director on Marvel’s Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. for seven seasons, Brown also previously worked on the show Prison Break for four. He’s also known for his work on Fox’s The Big Leap, among other projects.
Beach is represented by Buchwald, RED Management and Kleinberg, Lange, Cuddy and Carlo; Brown by The Stein Agency.
