NEW INDIE SCI-FI PROJECT FOR MATT
Matt Dallas has just signed on to a new indie sci-fi adventure called Paradox, written and directed by award-winning filmmaker, Elana A. Mugdan. It will be produced by Paradox Film and Shivnath Productions, headed by Dave Brown and Ms Mugdan. Shooting will commence later in the year, with the aim of completing it for release at the end of January 2014.
The storyline is as follows:
Paradox is a 97-minute sci-fi/drama about time travel, and the intrinsic questions of choice and free will that go along with that. Plagued by her poor life choices, Sophie Walters [Ashley Johnson], a young, aspiring scientist, decides to turn to time travel as a means of changing the dismal future she foresees for herself. Aided by her childhood friend, Caleb [Matt Dallas], and somewhat abetted by Jae, a 150-year-old time traveler from the year 2074, she embarks on a complex -- and dangerous -- journey to alter her fate, and in fact, the fate of the entire universe.

COMING SOON TO THE HALLMARK CHANNEL!
This Hallmark Channel original movie serves as a yuletide cautionary tale about being nice during Christmas, because if you’re naughty, the odds are somebody is going to know and there will be consequences.
In Naughty or Nice we discover that it isn’t always Santa Claus who “sees you when you’re sleeping”, “knows when you’re awake” and “knows when you’ve been bad or good”, as the song goes. Hilarie Burton (One Tree Hill, Secret Life of Bees) portrays Krissy Kringle, a beautiful young woman who nonetheless rejects everything positive about the holiday season.
As if the name she got saddled with wasn’t bad enough, things really start falling apart as Christmas approaches. First, she gets fired from her high-powered advertising job, then her attorney boyfriend, Lance (Matt Dallas, Kyle XY), starts pestering her about marriage; and on top of all of this, she lives on Candy Cane Lane! The final straw is her part-time job wrapping presents and playing Santa’s elf at the mall.
One day, as she’s cursing the fates, Krissy gets mistakenly delivered a crusty old book titled “Naughty or Nice” that’s filled with blank pages. She doesn’t think anything of it, until she recites someone’s name to the book and it suddenly springs to life, exposing the naughty deeds of those around her. Now, no one can hide their misdeeds from Krissy. But it turns out having this power isn’t so nice. It takes a lot of trial and error for her to ultimately discover the power of love, humility, and the wonder of Christmas. Beloved TV veterans Meredith Baxter and Michael Gross of Family Ties co-star.
