Dan Ewing, known for his roles in Home and Away, SAS Australia, and Love and Monsters, is set to take on the Australian lead role in the upcoming film Rembrandt Mansion. This thrilling project is a collaboration between Australian and American filmmakers, with US A-list stars to be announced later. Joining Dan Ewing in the cast are fellow Australian actors Daniel James and Brodie Henson. Daniel James will portray Mike, a shock jock radio announcer in the upcoming film Patched, directed by Steve Mann. Brodie Henson recently appeared as Tito in Deep Red Water, filmed on the Gold Coast and directed by Danial Donai.
With Hollywood increasingly turning to Australia as a prime filming location, and new studios popping up across the country, Rembrandt Mansion aims to strengthen film industry ties between Australia and the US. The film is a novel-to-screen adaptation spearheaded by American film producer and novelist Alexandria Altman. The project is a joint venture between Altman’s Rembrandt Mansion LLC and SWG Entertainment, based in Queensland’s Scenic Rim and Inverell in New South Wales.
Alexandria Altman, often likened to authors Stephanie Meyer and Anne Rice for her unique and captivating writing style, is leading the US production team. The team also includes legendary composer and music director Alan Howarth, known for his work on the Star Trek and Halloween franchises, as well as Escape From New York. With over 160 films to his name, Howarth’s involvement promises an epic score. Screenwriter Melody Rowland, whose credits include Hill Street Blues, Full House, and Growing Pains, has also joined the team, adding her expertise to what is expected to be a Hollywood blockbuster.
On the Australian side, the production team includes Mike Donnelly, Ross Wohlsen, and Pamela Wohlsen of SWG Entertainment. More announcements about the project and the Australian team are expected soon, with updates to be available on the SWG Entertainment website.
Dan Ewing’s casting in Rembrandt Mansion marks another significant milestone in his career, as well as an exciting step forward in the growing collaboration between the Australian and American film industries. Keep an eye out for more details on this highly anticipated film!
