Camaron Engels, best known for Netflix teen show “Malibu Rescue,” and cast in the streamer’s upcoming series “Clickbait,” is to play Romeo in a new film adaptation of “Romeo and Juliet,”…
The project, with the working title “R#J,” is directed by, who won a Special Jury Prize at the Sundance Film Festival in 2018 for his short “Emergency.” Francesca Noel, who appeared in the Sundance Labs film “Selah and the Spades,” will play Juliet.
The film is the first major project to come out of Bekmambetov and Tsay’s newly formed production company Interface Films. It will be the first of several mainstream projects produced by Interface to employ the Screenlife format, which has been nurtured by Bekmambetov’s company Bazelevs. Interface plans to spend more than $10 million on Screenlife films this year.
Bekmambetov said the company had adopted “the startup accelerator model” and was “applying it to the film industry in an effort to create a competitive production development landscape for aspiring film producers and disrupt the way the new digital films are made, financed, and distributed in time of crisis.”
