Starring Cary Elwes, Penelope Mitchell, Elaine Tan, Alphonso McAuley and an AMAZING supporting cast, The Hyperions was released March 10, 2022 by @dailywireentertainment. It’s a charming film that dares to play by its own rules – throwback action, lo-fi film techniques, and features live-action mixed with animation. Very original from the mind of Jon McDonald! But most importantly, it’s a movie with a lot of heart – about family and forgiveness. While Daily Wire isn’t representative of my politics, we can both agree that The Hyperions is entertaining and that it brings people closer together. This movie took a lot of time and care and a talented team of people to bring to life (tagging just some of them here). I was honored to serve as lead creative producer on the film.
