EAST GREENWICH, RI - November 21, 2012 (Investorideas.com Newswire) Verdi Productions reports that producer Chad A. Verdi and well- known Twilight actor /producer, Peter Facinelli's film Loosies expands distribution to both Showtime and The Movie Channel in Dec 2013.
Loosies, was acquired by IFC and premiered in New York at the IFC theater in early 2012 to a sold out audience.
Verdi, who is based in Rhode Island, is the President and CEO of both Verdi Productions and the Woodhaven Production Company. Loosies is just one of four films Verdi has filmed, produced and sold over the last two years in the State of Rhode Island.
"Loosies" tells the story of Bobby (Peter Facinelli, "Twilight"), a NYC pickpocket, who roams the city disguised as a stockbroker. He's handsome and charming, fitting in perfectly with the Wall Street types on the subway and downtown, but with no father and a mother who does not work, Bobby is forced to live a life of crime in order to make ends meet.
Bobby tempts fate with the long arm of the law by lifting the badge of a New York City Detective (Michael Madsen, "Kill Bill," "Infected") much to the annoyance of his viciously manipulative boss Jax (Vincent Gallo, "Brown Bunny"). Bobby becomes the center of a citywide search, and approaches Jax, his mentor, for advice. Jax scolds Bobby for bringing the heat anywhere near him or his business -- the last thing Jax needs is any extra attention on his illicit underground business.
While playing this dangerous game of cat and mouse, Bobby runs into an even bigger challenge... Lucy (Jaimie Alexander, "Thor," The Last Stand), a recent one-night stand. It is now three months after their passionate one night affair, and Bobby is confronted with a tough reality. Lucy informs him she is pregnant, and that the child is his. Suddenly two different worlds collide, forcing Bobby to reevaluate a lifetime of missteps.
In a city where he once survived by being invisible, Bobby is now very much exposed and hunted by the police, and he must now choose to continue the illicit lifestyle he once led, or change and take responsibility for his actions.
Producer and CEO of Verdi Productions, Chad A. Verdi, stated, " We will have locked up more than 30 overseas territories through CMG, had a VOD release that reached over 50 million homes with the film hitting theaters Jan 11th through IFC films, this is as good as it gets." Verdi added, "Everyone at VP worked very hard to make this all happen and the hard work paid off. Peter and Jaimie were brilliant along with the rest of the cast and the film came to life when my wife Michelle Verdi, head of talent and music for the company signed American Idol star Paul McDonald." with an original score done by Chad Fischer, ( Garden State). Verdi added "The White House has Requested a Copy of Loosies, That's Pretty Cool".
