Retired Soldier Shelters Runaway Android in Indie Sci-Fi Drama

An upcoming independent film set in the near future is generating buzz in the industry. The film, which recently wrapped production in Kentucky, follows a retired soldier whose isolated existence is shattered when a runaway female android seeks refuge on his farm.

The script, penned by Collin Kelly and Jackson Lanzing, is based on an original story by director Ridge. In a statement, Ridge expressed his gratitude for the "incredible ensemble of actors" who have brought his vision to life, saying he could never have imagined assembling such a talented cast for his directorial debut.

The film has added several notable names to its cast, including Lana Parrilla, Barkhad Abdi, Lovie Simone, Spenser Granese, and Jonathan Silverman. Producer Robert Ogden Barnum, who has collaborated with Ridge on nine previous films, praised the director's "remarkable creative vision" and the privilege of supporting him in this milestone project.

Despite the film's futuristic setting and exploration of the relationship between humans and androids, the production team has confirmed that no AI actors were used in the making of the movie. Audiences can look forward to this unique indie sci-fi drama, which promises to offer a thought-provoking exploration of the bonds that can form between people and technology.
