Any actor putting themselves next to Chris Evans has a big challenge in winning the audience’s attention, but a slightly inexperienced one like Mark Kassen is especially hard-pressed. This was the task he faced in this year’s Puncture, a film he also co-directed with his brother, Adam, and he somehow completed it with general success.
He’s now getting a starring role for himself: Variety reports that the actor will lead Stars, an indie drama directed by Derrick Borte and written by Jim Janosky. Their story tells us that the plot follows “a man who decides on his birthday to kill himself, but his disregard for life takes a turn en route to his demise.” So it’s light, you see.
The film also stars Puncture‘s Vinessa Shaw, along with Kathryn Hahn, Tom Bower, and Illeana Douglas. Produced by LLeju Productions and Storyland Pictures, the project is currently shooting in New Mexico.
