JoBlo.com finances its first full-length feature film \u2018Billy Trigger\u2019<\/p>\n

The action film will be directed by Christian Viel (Deaden) and stars Fred Williamson (From Dusk Till Dawn), John Fallon (Saw 2), Matthew Bennett (Battlestar Galactica) and Pia Metni (Mirror, Mirror) (Montreal, Canada) September 18, 2012 \u2013 Popular movie fansite JoBlo.com will be financing its first full feature called \u2018Billy Trigger\u2019 written by John Fallon and to be directed by Christian Viel. Principal photography on the film will begin in mid-October, with JCB Productions and Movie Seals Productions, which is a return to the genre for Viel and Fallon, who made Deaden together in 2006.<\/p>\n

Iconic American actor Fred Williamson will play \u2018Pops\u2019 in the film, the leader of an Irish mob which employs Billy Trigger, the hitman played by John Fallon, who is also co-producing the film. Joining them are Matthew Bennett playing \u2018Bruno\u2019 the expert assassin, as well as Pia Metni who will portray \u2018Catherine\u2019, the lead actress and love interest in the film.<\/p>\n

Official synopsis: Irish mobster Billy Trigger has been the O\u2019Brien family\u2019s number one enforcer for three years now. And for good reason: he is cold, calculating and relentless and has never tackled a job he couldn\u2019t finish. His life is trouble-free and solitary and consists mainly of three things: loose women, doing the work and cashing in. That\u2019s until Pops, the head of the organization, hands him his next assignment. Trigger is tasked to look over Pops\u2019 young mistress, Catherine, while he\u2019s away. Of course, nothing goes as planned and Trigger ends up on the wrong side of Pops\u2019 esteem… What happens when the best in the business is pitted against the business? Place your bets!<\/p>\n

This will be the 5th cinematic collaboration between Viel and Fallon, who had previously worked together on Deaden, Recon 2020, Recon 2022: The Mezzo Incident and Recon 2023: The Gauda Prime Conspiracy. Most recently, Viel is the creative mind behind the very popular online comic book web series \u201cHeroes of the North\u201d, while Fallon has written and starred in American Muscle, and starred in the French horror film Dead Shadows.<\/p>\n
