Genre Banner Stoked Film Group Launches

‘Dig,’ starring Emile Hirsch, and ‘Slayers’, which is led by Abigail Breslin and Malin Akerman, are the first films on Stoked’s slate.

Former NBA player Jarnell Stokes, director K. Asher Levin and producer Daniel Cummings have come together to launch production company Stoked Film Group.

The company will focus on genre projects in the $3 million to $5 million range, setting an initial slate of features that includes the already-announced Dig, starring Emile Hirsch, and Slayers, which is led by Abigail Breslin, Thomas Jane and Malin Akerman.

Dig, which is currently in postproduction, follows a widowed father and his daughter whose house is up for demolition and are taken hostage by a dangerous couple who won’t stop until they retrieve what lies beneath the property.

Slayers follows a group of superstar influencers drawn to a reclusive billionaire’s mansion, only to find themselves trapped in the lair of an evil vampire. It was recently announced that worldwide rights were picked up by Highland Film Group, which will introduce the project to international buyers at AFM, while Highland’s distribution arm, The Avenue, will handle a domestic release, targeting a 2022 U.S. release.

Both films were directed by Levin, who will also helm Stoked’s next feature, Helen’s Dead, which follows an aimless 20-something who, upon discovering that her boyfriend is sleeping with her cousin Helen, shows up at a dinner party to confront her boyfriend and cousin, only to discover that Helen is dead and everybody is a suspect.

Helen’s Dead is currently casting with principal photography slated to begin in December.
