Yesterday saw the release of a new R-Rated action thriller ftitled Run & Gun. Directed and written by Christopher Borrelli (Eloise, Witches in the Woods), the film features a blend of comedy and thrills sure to entertain a wide range of viewers.
The incredibly talented cast of Run & Gun includes Ben Milliken (Mighty Oak, Lake Alice) in the lead role as Ray, a man with a violent past attempting to live a reformed life who ends up wounded and on the run from dangerous and violent assassins.
Additionally, the cast features Brad William Henke (Orange Is the New Black), Janel Parrish (Pretty Little Liars), Mark Dacascos (John Wick, Iron Chef, Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.), and the inimitable Richard Kind (The Goldbergs, Inside Out) sporting a beard.
Dacascos and Kind play an odd couple in the film as adopted brothers, and they add layers of comedy to the physicality of their roles. We were able to speak with both of them about their parts in the movie and learned a multitude of information about the actors in general.
The comic book aesthetic of the film's poster is depicted below alongside the movie's official synopsis, providing context for readers interested in tuning in.
After leaving a life of crime and violence, Ray is a reformed good guy, enjoying a quiet family life in the 'burbs. But when his past is discovered, Ray is blackmailed into one last job to collect a mysterious package. After a deadly double-cross, he finds himself wounded and on the run from ruthless assassins who will stop at nothing to get what he has. Now, with the lives of his loved ones hanging in the balance and danger at every turn, Ray's only hope is to draw upon his violent past to survive.
