Blue Star Opportunities affiliate Laurel Leaf Productions launches new film production
division: Award-winning producer Laurel Harris to helm production slates in 2022
— Upcoming Projects Include “47,” Starring Dan Lauria;
“I Met Her at Birkenau”; and “Pink Boa” —
RENO, NV, August 4th, 2022 Blue Star Opportunities Corp. (The "Company") (OTC: BSTO),announces today the launch of its film production affiliate Laurel Leaf Productions, with seasoned producer and actor Laurel Harris driving its vison and content.
Laurel Harris is an award-winning producer and actress best known as Willem Dafoe’s wife in the screen adaptation of Dean Koontz's best-selling novel, “Odd Thomas,” and for the American Girl film, “Saige Paints the Sky,” opposite Jane Seymour.
On the heels of her recurring role on the hit television series, “Big Sky,” Harris brings together an award-winning team of collaborators to present a promising 2022 slate of projects, including “47,” “Pink Boa,” and “I Met Her at Birkenau.” Laurel Leaf Productions will be a multimedia production group aimed at creating socially relevant film and television content.
Harris says, “Working with Nobel Peace Laureates—including the Dalai Lama and Archbishop Desmond Tutu— in the ‘Nobel Legacy Film Series’ fueled a burning desire to create stories that uplift and empower humanity. At Laurel Leaf Productions, we spark intelligent conversations around delicate or less popular topics, while creating content that inspires and empowers people from all walks of life.”
Laurel Leaf Production’s first film, “47,” which begins filming this month, focuses on the often-lonely anguish facing women with infertility issues. It grapples with the complex social dilemma of what it means to be a woman and working professional over 40 in America, struggling with the stigmas of motherhood.
Dan Lauria, who is set to star in “47,” is a familiar face to the Broadway and off-Broadway scene, having performed, written or directed over fifty equity productions—including starring on Broadway as Vince Lombardi in “Lombardi,” and as the narrator in “Christmas Story, The Musical.” Lauria has a score of feature films and over 70 TV guest spots to his credit. He is most familiar to audiences as the dad on the Emmy-winning television show, “The Wonder Years.”
With the launch of Laurel Leaf Productions and filming underway this month, Blue Star Opportunities’ transition into a full-fledged media and entertainment Enterprise is well under way.
We will continue to inform you on these developments in the weeks to come.
