Actress Katherine Castro (The Summoning) has joined award-winning American actor Greg Germann (Ally McBeal), in the Andrés Curbelo (Biutiful) and David Maler (Codigo Paz) co-directed Dominican Republic drama movie Reinbou, set to start filming this week in Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic.
The fantasy feature film is based on the popular fiction novel Maceta by Puerto Rican-born Caribbean writer Pedro Cabiya, and follows the historical story of the 1965 American invasion into the Dominican Republic seen through the magical eyes of a child, Angel Maceta. At the helm of the story is Captain Horton, played by Germann, one of the commanders that leads the invasion and marries a young native Dominican played by Castro.
The project is being produced by Gilberto Morillo (Sand Dollars), Nashla Bogaert (Who’s The Boss) and David Maler (Código Paz), and also stars Hector Anibal (Once Upon A Fish).
