OFFICIAL FEATURE DOCUMENTARY UPDATE - OCTOBER 2019 #2 |
|
|
All you Northwesterners - Return To Hardwick is screening at the The Museum of Flight in Seattle, Washington October 26th at 1:00 PM. As a bonus we will have Hollywood actor Michael Cudlitz attend the screening! Michael showed up in Savannah, GA in June at the National Museum of the Mighty Eighth Air Force. He was happy to connect with people attending the screening and showed his support for the film. I'm guessing this time around won't be any different. |

Just a bit of history, Michael Cudlitz got word about the Return To Hardwick project in early 2016. A friend of his was connected to someone in the 93rd Bomb Group and reached out to Michael to see if he would be interested in supporting the film. Well, three years later - here we are. Not only does Michael do an on camera introduction, he also provides narration for the film. |

Most people started to get familiar with Michael's work in HBO's WWII series Band of Brothers (2001). He played the role of Denver "Bull" Randleman. Michael's career goes even further back to the early 90's with a role on the popular television show Beverly Hills, 90210 and feature films like Grosse Pointe Blank and the Negotiator. Fast forward and Michael commands leading roles in The Walking Dead (AMC), The Kids Are Alright (ABC), and Southland (TNT). Currently, he can be spotted behind the camera directing - so watch out! |

It's been a blessing to have Michael's support for film festival and museum releases of Return To Hardwick. I know the 93rd Bomb Group Association and I will look back on this and cherish just how perfect a collaboration this was. Michael Sellers Producer/Director Return To Hardwick |
