EXCLUSIVE: Actor-producers Nicholas Cirillo (Poker Face) and Matthew Montemaro (Jesus Revolution) have today announced the launch of Enzo Entertainment, an independent production company with a primary focus on original, theatrically released feature films.
The mission of the company will be to create character-driven titles that reinvigorate younger generations’ relationship with cinema and moviegoing. Its founders, who struck up a friendship after meeting on set as actors, will be active in both Atlanta and Los Angeles. The first project to come out of Enzo is the proof-of-concept short Two Shovels and a Will, written and directed by Cirillo, and starring both Enzo founders, which was nominated for Best Narrative Short at the 2023 Atlanta Shortsfest. Other films on the dance card at the shingle include the comedy Dirty Myrtle, written by Cirillo, and the thriller Town Zero which he scripted with Montemaro. Also in development is a series that has a notable rising indie filmmaker on board, though specifics are being kept under wraps for now.
“Our mantra is ‘cinema, not content,'” said Montemaro. “We”’re aware and excited about the opportunities to achieve great storytelling in streaming and television, but it is our belief, and as I think the market is starting to indicate, people going to movie theaters is good for the entertainment industry at large.” Added Cirillo, “This is a pivotal moment in the history of this business with the WGA and SAG strike, and we started this company to be part of that change. Our only focus is the art, and fighting for the artists we work with. Now is the time for independent filmmaking, now is the time for taking risks and putting crazy ideas on the big screen.”
