Metro Voice News Celebrating Faith, Family & Community
Angel Studios has finished production on a new end-of-civilization movie, “Homestead“.
The film is inspired by the popular book series Black Autumn, written by Jeff Kirkham and Jason Ross. It revolves around the conflict between two families during the collapse of society.
One family is well-prepared and affluent, while the other family consists of military veterans who have been recruited to provide security for their property.
Amid their disagreements, and as the world becomes more and more violent, there is mounting evidence that God may have his own intentions.
The film and TV show features Neal McDonough (Minority Report, Band of Brothers), Bailey Chase (Longmire, S.W.A.T., 24: Legacy), Dawn Olivieri (1883, House of Lies), Jesse Hutch (Batwoman), Kevin Lawson (The Shift), Kearran Giovanni (Major Crimes, Designated Survivor), Tyler Lofton (Grown-ish, Love, Victor), Susan Misner (Billions, The Americans), Olivia Sanabia (Just Add Magic), Grace Powell (All Rise, Station 19), and Caden Dragomer (911 Lone Star).
“I’m looking forward to watching a family-oriented apocalypse story that is filled with hope on screen. After all, isn’t it true that God is always doing something amazing, even in challenging times?” says Jeffrey Harmon, one of the founders of Angel Studios. Homestead experiences a tumultuous journey throughout the collapse of society, only to demonstrate that family, community, and love are the most crucial factors for survival. I’m really excited to see both the movie and the TV show.
“Homestead” is set to premiere as a hybrid idea, starting as a feature film in 2024 and later evolving into a TV series.
The production endeavor collected more than $1.25 million from around 3,000 backers.
