How MR RIGHT NOW came to be
I drive a lot for my job and it's insane, all that can go on in this brain of mine as the miles add up. I'm constantly observing and thinking about the actions, feelings, behaviors, quirks, of myself and others; the human condition. I guess the gift in this particular obsessiveness is that I realized I have something to say about it all. I have a story to tell about women like me, who are looking to connect on all levels.
I moved from NYC out to LA 17 years ago with dreams of taking Hollywood by storm. It was the "Me, Me, Me" show. I busted my ass, studied, made great progress and even have some impressive credits on my resume to show for it.
But then my priorities shifted. I fell in love, got married and had two boys in 13 months. Life got really busy! For quite a few years! And then life got really hard when my marriage ended. For quite a few years. Acting took a backseat. I was okay with that because I knew that time spent with my guys trumped all else. I have no regrets about the way anything has gone.
Here's the silver lining- With my young men in the full swing of school, friends, sports and growing independence I now find myself able to chase that dream again!
I am surrounded by amazing women over the age of 40! We know our strengths and weaknesses. We understand what's important and we dare greatly, because it is now ourselves whom we wish to fulfill, rather than everybody else. That's what this project means to me. It is a vehicle to find my way back to my passion. I get to act again! And in a role where truth and authenticity are celebrated through the lead women.
Mr Right Now is the story of a woman who goes looking for some unattached sex after her marriage ends. When she can't seem to find any takers she spirals down a rabbit hole of desperation and self doubt, only to come out the other side a bit wiser and full of hysterical, bizarre, ridiculous, horrific date stories to tell.
What we Need to get the Job Done
I approached two longtime pros (and friends) about directing and producing this film. They read the script, nodded their heads knowingly, laughed out loud in places and jumped on board. Having a dream team to work with is a blessing, but we still need the tools to give them to make their magic.
It takes a village! Here's a breakdown of what this little baby is going to cost us from start to finish! So when donating to the project, keep in mind the amazing groups of people you are helping to bring to the table.
Being a part of the Mr Right Now village does not come without it's perks! Don't miss the awesome list of incentives on the right side of the page. Your generosity will not go unnoticed. Every dollar matters, there is no amount too small. And for anyone who can't contribute, it doesn't mean you can't help. Please, make some noise about the campaign!
