Rob Morgan To Produce & Star In Allyn Brothers’ Appalachian Crime Pic ‘Dixie Crystal’ For Riverside Entertainment

Morgan will produce with the Allyn brothers’ Margate House Films (No Man’s Land, Edge of the World) and Riverside Entertainment’s Brian Loschiavo, Pastor Alvarado and Jeff Molyneaux (Manodrome, Bluebird), who will also finance alongside Matt Shelton, Josh Peters (The Lighthouse) and exec producer Tony Herbert.
