First Kiss was a fan favorite at the Catalina Film Festival!

This past weekend, First Kiss played at the Catalina Film Festival. It was named a fan favorite by PressLA.com!

Beyond documentaries, the festival also serves as a hub for independent filmmakers and screenwriters. Highlighting both shorts and full-length features, the festival saw the world premiere of the comedic short First Kiss, a fan favorite throughout the weekend. Although only four minutes long the film tells the trials and tribulations of a couple that just can’t seem to get to the first kiss, the results are unexpected and hilarious.

The festival response for First Kiss has been very positive! I can't wait to finally see this short film. It should be released online soon.

Round up on Joe's most recent projects

There have been a few updates over the last few weeks on Joe's latest film roles, so here is a post about the status of each project:

Coma (2012)
Joe has completed filming for this TV miniseries. His character name and role is still unknown. The show is set to premiere on the A&E Network on May 28th, 2012....two episodes will air that night that are each an hour long. The following night on May 29th, the final two episodes will air which are also each an hour long.

GI Joe Retaliation (2012)
Filming is complete and the movie is in Post-Production. You can watch the full trailer HERE. Joe appears in this trailer at the beginning. There is also a TV spot HERE in which Joe appears very briefly alongside The Rock. A French trailer was also released, but Joe does not appear in that trailer. A line of action figures from the movie have been revealed, however Joe's character Mouse does not have an action figure.

First Kiss (2011)
This is a 4 minute short film that Joe stars in along with Brenda Song who co-starred with Joe in The Social Network. It should be online around the end of March. You can listen to a track from the soundtrack titled "Running" right HERE on composer Kevin Blumenfeld's website.

Allison (2011)
This is also a 4 minute short film by the same director of First Kiss. It should also be online around the end of March.

Check out pictures from GI Joe, First Kiss, and Allison on the PHOTOS page.

Round up on of all Joe's most recent projects

Since news has been a bit slow, I thought I would put together this quick summary of what is going on with Joe's most recent movies:

GI Joe 2: Retaliation
Filming is complete and the movie is in Post-Production. Within a few months the first trailer should be released, along with posters and film stills. It will be in theaters on June 29th, 2012.

First Kiss
This short film has been shown at select film festivals and should be released online by the end of this year or early next year. The film is 4 minutes long and co-stars Brenda Song who also appeared with Joe in The Social Network.

Allison
Joe makes a small appearance in this short film, which is by the same director of First Kiss. This short is also 4 minutes long and should be released online simultaneously with First Kiss either by the end of this year or early next year.

Georgetown
Only a pilot episode was filmed, but it wasn't picked up by the ABC network. It has not aired on TV and there is no current release date. The listing on IMDB changed from "Pilot" to "TV Movie", so there is a small chance ABC might air it, but it is unlikely. No official pictures, posters or videos have been released from the show.
