Production has started on the Tubi Original Movie Spread starring Elizabeth Gillies (“Dynasty”), Harvey Keitel (“The Irishman”), Diedrich Bader (“Veep”), Bryan Craig (“Good Trouble”) Teri Polo (“Meet the Parents”), Blake Harrison (“The Inbetweeners”), Tim Rozon (“Schitt’s Creek”) and Keith Walker (“The Upshaws”). From Cartel Pictures and set to debut in 2023, SPREAD follows an ambitious aspiring journalist (Gillies) who lands a temp job at an adult magazine run by an aging industry king (Keitel) and must reconcile her idealism as she strives to help the company succeed. The film, directed by Ellie Kanner (“Authors Anonymous”) and written and co-produced by Buffy Charlet (“Holy Ghost People”), also stars Dia Frampton (“Candy Coated Christmas”), Jonah Platt (“Uncoupled”), and Diora Baird (“Cobra Kai”). Inspired by screenwriter Charlet’s real-life experience as a temp at Hustler magazine who rose to be an editor, Spread is executive produced by Elizabeth Gillies, and produced by Stan Spry (“Creepshow”), Eric Scott Woods (“Harland Manor”), and Graem Luis (“Day of the Dead”). Tubi’s Lewinson shepherded the project working closely with Charlet in the development process, and Kanner and the production team through the casting process.
“Spread is a smart comedy inspired by a true story that shows how an unexpected turn in one’s career aspirations can spark a journey of self-discovery,” Adam Lewinson, Chief Content Officer, Tubi commented “The fantastic Liz Gillies and the legendary Oscar© nominee Harvey Keitel are joined by an outstanding ensemble cast in this upcoming Tubi Original with a wholly unique voice from an incredibly funny and perceptive screenplay.”
