Film to begin principal photography by February 2004

BRISTOL - September 29, 2003 - The Wraith: Eyes of Judgment short film has been announced by Trinity Comics and Sir Reel Films. A collection of talented actors have signed to play key roles in the film based on Trinity Comics' new and popular hero The Wraith, appearing in comic books and novels of the same name. David Cooper will play the title character, Stacie Cooper will portray Leena Patterson, and Ryan Basham will become the villainous Cobra, with more cast members to be announced soon.

The Wraith: Eyes of Judgment tells the story of an ethereal figure of the night. The Wraith's past is shrouded in mystery. By day, he is millionaire former recluse Paul Sanderson. By night, he is a dread avenger of the underworld, attacking evil like a cancer! A supreme athlete and hand-to-hand combatant, his one power is to force evildoers to feel the pain of their victims, when they are forced to look into the ‘eyes of judgment’ on his chest, causing them untold anguish and guilt. Aiding him in his war on crime is his loyal assistant Max Horton, and his love Leena Patterson, who has found her entire world changing, but has managed the courage and determination to change along with it. Hunted by both the police and crime lord Robert Latham, The Wraith continues his eternal struggle against evil!

The film is being co-written and directed by Sir Reel principal and founder Stephen J. Semones, and will be produced by Derik Nutter and Ty Kelsey. Stephen J. Semones and Trinity publisher & The Wraith writer/creator Frank Dirscherl will serve as Executive Producers. Larry Groupé, the superb musician who scored the big budget Dreamworks film The Contender, starring Gary Oldman and Christian Slater, and the TV series Commander In Chief, will score the theme; while Adam DiTroia will supply the interior music score. Xtreme Design FX and Universal Designs are handling the film's complex costuming, while Marc Kimball from The Troupe is the visual effects supervisor. Industry legend Scott Leva (X-Men, Star Trek, Lois & Clark, Red Eye etc.) will serve as the film's stunt co-ordinator & fight choreographer.
