"Virtually Heroes" wurde 2013 von Roger Corman produziert, erblickte aber nie das Licht der Welt. Das wird sich im Februar 2023 ändern:
As reported by Variety, Virtually Heroes is a comedy action movie that stars Mark Hamill as a “Yoda-like monk” who aids a pair of self-aware characters in a Call of Duty-inspired video game to win the game against the odds. In a statement, Screen Media said:
"We're thrilled to bring this lost Corman project to our audiences. The film is a perfect blend of action and campy, tongue-in-cheek comedy, and will be sure to delight viewers – whether this is their first foray into the world of Roger Corman or fiftieth."
Along with Hamill, the movie stars Robert Baker, Brent Chase and Katie Savoy, and was directed by Frank and Cindy helmer GJ Echternkamp. The director commented in relation to the movie finally getting a release, saying:
"Virtually Heroes was an ambitious project in many ways, and not exactly what you would call a conventional film. I'm so glad that Screen Media is, at last, bringing this cult movie out of the shadows and onto their platform to be discovered by a new audience."
