Sci-fi Short Film 'Rise' Getting Feature Adaptation

According to The Hollywood Reporter, the short film "RISE" starring the late Anton Chelton, is being made into a feature film. If you haven't watched the original video from last year, you really should.


Lin, who is an exec producer on the upcoming Tom Cruise-starrer American Made, and Oliver, who produced Hacksaw Ridge and Black Swan among others, will fully finance and produce the film, and are planning Rise as a driver for a film franchise. Roy Lee at Vertigo also is producing with Trevor Engelson of Underground.
