Eric Roberts, Tanna Frederick Cast in New Independent Film HOPE

Paco Jones writer/director of the new film HOPE is pleased to announce that Tanna Frederick (The Rainmaker, The M Word, Just 45 Minutes From Broadway,) Eric Roberts (The Dark Knight, The Expendables, Coca Cola Kid,) Eliza Roberts (Queen of the Lot, A New York Heartbeat, Animal House,) Brent David Fraser (Wild at Heart, The Chocolate War, Dead & Breakfast,) Keaton Simons (Hollywood Dreams, Californication,) and Robert Standley (The Rainmaker, Turn of Faith, Ali) will join the 21 character cast of the film HOPE which will be shooting in May in Seattle, WA.

HOPE was inspired by Paco's experiences in the Seattle music scene. HOPE is also film about relationships and love. Akin to the films of Robert Altman, the many characters intertwine as the story unfolds. The story asks the question of what do we do when faced with tragedy and disappointment, give in, give up or keep going?

Steve Fisk, (About a Son) a Seattle music scene luminary, is onboard as well to create the score for the film.
