Movie Seals Productions, in collaboration with Critical Mass Releasing, begins preproduction on the sequel to their award winning sci-fi/action film RECON 2020: THE CAPRINI MASSACRE.
RECON 2022: THE MEZZO CONSPIRACY, picks up two years after the events of the first film and introduces a new cast of characters as well as bringing back familiar ones. After the gruesome events on Caprini, Sharp and his elite team of tough space Marines must now head out to the icy planet Mezzo to investigate further Ma'har activities. What they will discover there defies imagination: giant snow worms, an underground cyborg city, and maybe, finally, a glimpse of the ever elusive Ma'hars.
Anderson Bradshaw (Taking Lives, Gothika) reprises his role as Lieutenant Sharp, the though, hard nosed leader who must lead his rag tag team of soldiers through the numerous perils of Mezzo. Valerie Wiseman (Barbarian Invasions, Steal) returns as the impassible android Kara and by popular demand, will have more screen time and kick more @$$ this time around. Gillian Leigh (Samhain) returns as well as the sassy hotshot pilot Fooks. Other returning actors include John Fallon (Saw 2, Pain Killer, Alone in the Dark) in a surprising expansion on his original mercenary cameo, Heidi Hawkins (MTV's Undressed), Howard Rosenstein (Hatley High, Samhain), Ian Paterson and Nadja Scantamburlo.
As far as confirmed new comers, scream queen and B-movie actress Suzi Lorraine (The Night they Returned, Chainsaw Sally) makes a special appearance as the sultry Dr. Beverly Jones while Carmen Echeverria (Pain Killer, MTV's Undressed) co-stars as the ambitious, no-nonsense Lieutenant Salma Alvarez.
RECON 2022: THE MEZZO CONSPIRACY is prolific Montreal writer/director/editor Christian Viel (Pain Killer, RECON 2020, Samhain) fifth feature film and his first sequel. The film is executive produced by William Alexander and produced by Christian Viel who will also edit the film. Jean-Francois Fontaine returns as director of Photography. Fight choreography will be handled by Alan Chou (Samhain). Special Effects will be handled by Cineffects. Principal Photography will begin in January 2006 in Montreal, Canada.
