The Count 2 Prequel 'The Next Day' Casting Begins


Well Casting has officially begun for our next installment to my highly anticipated feature film entitled 'The Count' . The film will be acting as a Prequel to the line up to the Count.

The story takes place just 6-8 weeks before the original Count Murders took place.

The film has all ready locked off on its main two characters from the original that being Luke Launer who plays (Jericho) aka: Derrick Herjer and Daniel Reader who plays Marko in the film.

Luke will also be stepping up to direct this next installment to the franchise aswell.

The film will lead an all star cast include a few new characters that Luke has written into the film.

The film will feature yet another Home Invasion caught on a mini handycam camera which will be quite similar to the original Home Invasion in the Count but will feature a whole new look and feel that being several other security based cameras planted right throughout the house as well, the film will still feature the whole handheld 'Blair Witch' type of ordeal.

We follow the life and story of Derrick Herjer a struggling artist who's just trying to keep his head above water.

After Derrick doesn't receive the correct pricing s for his work, Derrick returns home broken and distressed but what really tops it off is he returns home to find his wife Sara cheating on him with another man in there bed, Derrick snaps.

To apply please be sure to check out the following link: Website.

We watch as a normal man takes transition into the sick sadistic serial killer Jericho who then begins to carry out acts of violence against others introducing them to a rule of a game known as 'The Count' a 10 second Countdown which determines whether or not the victims live or die.

Derrick takes control in a slow approach and carries out the unthinkable crime of the century.

Jericho is later caught and arrested for his crimes and is interrogated giving him the death penalty. Jericho is interrogated by a Det. Steven Walterson who has just recently lost his wife due to a fatal car accident, he lives up in the mountains with his troubled teenage daughter Elle who decides to a throw a wild drinking party with her friends and boyfriend Scott when her father is away on the 'Jericho Murders Case'.

Things do not end well. Jericho talks about the build up, his childhood and how he came to be set off.

But Jericho has one more fatal card to play setting up his rules/game and challenging the entire police force (for a run for their money' 2 weeks after, Jericho is later released and carries out his first game against his so called cheating partner Sara, in which after that teams up with partner in crime Marko to take over and ransack the Finiot Residence.

As part of the process of development for this project I will be casting and holding auditions at the start of June. Rehearsals will be run during that time in which will be starting to shoot around the end of June this year. After the film is finished I will be focusing all my attention of finishing off the last and final installment of the 'Snap Factory' Franchise.
