My Son Hunter is an upcoming fictional film centered Hunter Biden. Directed by Robert Davi, the film stars Laurence Fox, Gina Carano and John James. The film is being distributed by media company Breitbart News.
Synopsis
According to the British online newspaper The Independent, the film will center on "allegations made by Trump allies" about Hunter Biden's foreign business deals. The producers stated that the film will depict the alleged "business dealings and lifestyle of Hunter Biden."
Cast
- Laurence Fox as Hunter Biden
- Gina Carano as a secret service agent
- John James as U.S. president Joe Biden
Development and filming
Two conservative Irish filmmakers, Ann McElhinney and Phelim McAleer, are developing the film while attempting to raise its budget. When the film was first announced, it introduced its attempt to raise 2.5 million dollars via a private crowdfunding site. Currently, the project has raised over 2.5 million dollars from crowdfunding on its official site. Pre-production started as early as February 2021 according to star Gina Carano. The movie's crew includes Robert Davi as director, and Phelim McAleer & Ann McElhinney as producers.
Gina Carano, who will be playing a "world-weary" secret service agent in the film stated: "The script was instantly intriguing and side achingly hilarious to me, especially after being newly exposed to the political realm in 2020. Robert Davi is someone who reached out to me as soon as I was ‘canceled’ in Feb. 2021. I signed on in support of him and one of my favorite humans, Laurence Fox."
Production began in October 2021 in Serbia, and lasted for four weeks. During filming John James, who portrayed Joe Biden, had an off-set injury and was rushed to the hospital, though he continued filming after treatment saying that "the show must go on."
Post-production
The movie finished principal photography and is currently in post-production while producers McAleer & McElhinney focus on marketing.
