EXCLUSIVE: A first look of Oscar-nominated Italian star Giancarlo Giannini and Tatiana Luter on the set of Italy-set thriller Bunny-Man has been unveiled as filming begins in Rome.
Giannini and Luter play Judge Gladwell and his wife who are integral to the plot of the thriller, also featuring James Franco, Bella Thorne, Mike Tyson, Debora Nascimento, Meredith Mickelson, and Lexi Coons in the cast.
The film is produced by Andrea Iervolino, who has yet to reveal the identity of the director.
It tells the story of the double life of a multimillionaire hip-hop artist known as Bunny-Man (his stage name), whose fame and public persona mask a web of pain, revenge, and private justice. His seemingly perfect life is shattered by the tragic suicide of his sister, a consequence of a brutal sexual assault. Bunny-Man then embarks on a mission to expose those responsible for this horrific crime and confront a corrupt system.
The characters of Judge Gladwell and his wife Luise lie at the heart of the corruption driving the story. Thanks to the judge’s manipulation, the two young perpetrators of the assault against the protagonist’s sister manage to walk free.
These wealthy young men relied on the criminal Mr. Fox, who orchestrated the scheme by exploiting his passionate affair with Judge Gladwell’s wife. To reach the culprits, Bunny-Man must retrace the criminal web step by step, confronting every figure involved in this network of complicity and silence.
“I’m proud to welcome two outstanding Italian performers to the cast – Oscar-nominated actor Giancarlo Giannini and Tatiana Luter, who also stars in Maserati and brings both elegance and on-screen presence. Their addition further elevates an ambitious international project like Bunny-Man, which, while keeping the pace of a thriller, tackles a deep theme with intelligence and powerful narrative impact,” said Iervolino.
