Bloody Disgusting has an exclusive first look at Emile Hirsch (Into the Wild, The Girl Next Door, Freaks) in the new psychological thriller State of Consciousness for Iervolino Entertainment, which began filming last week in Bari, Italy, and the surrounding areas.

In the film, “Nightmares and reality become indistinguishable to Stephen (Hirsch) when he is forced to take medication for a psychological disorder he doesn’t have.  To regain his sanity and get back to his normal life, he sets out to escape from the institution he has been trapped in.”

Marcus Stokes (“Supergirl”, “Criminal Minds”) is directing the movie also starring Michael E. Rodgers and Lara Pictet.

The screenplay was written by Rylend Grant & Dikran Ornekian and Guillaume Tunzini.

The film is produced by Andrea Iervolino and Monika Bacardi.

Silvio Muraglia’s Paradox Studios acquired worldwide distribution rights.

Daniel Roebuck has been cast as Santa Claus in Terrifier 3, Bloody Disgusting can exclusively report.

Writer-director Damien Leone is currently wrapping production on the highly-anticipated sequel, in which Art the Clown unleashes chaos on the unsuspecting residents of Miles County as they peacefully drift off to sleep on Christmas Eve.

“I’ve been holding this secret for a long time!” Roebuck tells Bloody Disgusting. “I’ve been really excited about it. I’m actually entering into the movies that I watch. It’s extraordinary. This is Terrifier bigger, badder, best.”

Roebuck appears in Terrifier 3 alongside returning cast members David Howard Thornton, Lauren LaVera, Samantha Scaffidi, Elliot Fullam, and AEW superstar Chris Jericho.

No stranger to iconic horror properties, Roebuck has squared off against Michael Myers in Rob Zombie’s Halloween II, played The Count in Zombie’s The Munsters, succumbed to The Tall Man’s sphere in Phantasm: Ravager, and investigated death in Final Destination.

A distinguished character actor with over 250 credits, Roebuck has also appeared in The Devil’s Rejects, 3 from Hell, Bubba Ho-Tep, John Dies at the End, The Fugitive, Lost, Agent Cody Banks, and The Man in the High Castle. Incidentally, he’s also playing Santa in the family drama Saint Nick of Bethlehem, due out later this year.

Terrifier 3 will be released in theaters nationwide later this year via Cineverse and Bloody Disgusting in conjunction with our partner on Terrifier 2, Iconic Events Releasing.
