LLEJU Prod.To Produce & Finance "The Baytown Disco"

William O. Perkins, founder and President of LLeju Productions announced today that they are financing and producing THE BAYTOWN DISCO, which follows the foibles of three redneck brothers who get more than they bargained for after agreeing to help a woman get her son back from his seemingly-abusive father.  First-time director Barry Battles will helm the film which is based on a script he co-wrote with Griffin Hood (I Ran Against Us, Mr. Extion). Robert Teitel (Notorious, Men of Honor, Barbershop Franchise, Soulfood) and George Tillman under their State Street Pictures banner will produce with LLeju Productions who optioned the script and control the rights. Mary Vernieu at Betty Mae is casting for the pic which is based on a script that was listed on 2009’s “Black List” of Hollywood’s top unproduced projects.

“We found Barry and Griffin’s script to be edgy, fun and entertaining, which is synonymous with the LLeju brand. This is the ideal project for us to partner with Bob and George.” said Perkins.

Teitel said “After meeting Bill, we’re very much looking forward to collaborating with LLeju, and we hope this leads to future projects. We’re confident Barry and Girffin’s script will find commercial appeal with audiences everywhere.”

THE BAYTOWN DISCO will be the first collaboration between LLeju Productions and State Street Pictures.  Production starts in early May in Louisiana.

THE BAYTOWN DISCO will follow LLeju’s upcoming theatrical release of the Paz Vega starrer Cat Run on April 1st and The Chameleon, which hits theaters this spring and stars Ellen Barkin and Famke Janssen.
