<\/a>Update on The Madonna Files<\/em> movie talk<\/b><\/span><\/h3>\n\u00a0<\/p>\n
\nChristian themed movies are suddenly very hot in Hollywood and \u00a0movie executives are taking notice.<\/h3>\n
And now, after a string of positive reviews and strong book sales further, discussions with MCM-Films are again taking place on a film project based on \u00a0the best selling thriller \u2013 The Madonna Files.<\/em><\/p>\nContact Co-Producer \u2013\u00a0Susan Rider at mcmfilms@aol.com<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u00a0Charlie Young Executive Producer with MCM-FILMS <\/b>\u201cWe love this book. The Madonna Files<\/a> is an action packed thriller that we think will make a great film. Like any successful creative project, it all starts with a good story and Stephen Ryan\u2019s The Madonna Files is a fun and exciting story. It has a cinematic narrative that works for us, superb visuals, and interesting plot twists. \u00a0We are now based in Los Angeles, but our roots are in Washington, D.C. and\u00a0a\u00a0lot of great action takes place in the capital of the free world which really appeals to us.\u201d<\/p>\nStephen Ryan:\u00a0 \u201c<\/b>I am excited about the possibility of working with MCM-FILMS. Their background in making mystery films is particularly intriguing to me.\u00a0 \u201cThe Exorcist\u201d is arguably the greatest mystery \/ horror film of all time and make no mistake about it, that movie was deeply \u201cCatholic\u201d. It is what made the movie so powerful \u2013 that the story was based on actual events. To this day, I can\u2019t watch the movie.\u00a0 My hope is to do the same thing, but instead of satan as the star of the show it would be the Madonna.<\/p>\n
The way this film will work best is if it is true to the Catholic Church. Otherwise, it\u2019s just another Vampire movie. The Madonna Files<\/em> is based on the incredibly rich history of some astonishing claims made by the Catholic Church and these claims include unexplained phenomena about appearances of the Virgin Mary \u00a0I think MCM -FILMS would be brilliant at creating the mysterious world of Marian apparitions.\u00a0 What is interesting is that the Catholic Church absolutely believes in these mysterious appearances of the Mother of Christ.\u00a0\u00a0 To this day there are still deeply hidden secrets of the Virgin Mary, \u00a0most notably the secrets of Fatima, that continue to create but both great interest and controversies inside the Vatican.<\/p>\n![\"Starbucks\"](\"https:\/\/wp-media.patheos.com\/blogs\/sites\/616\/2016\/02\/Starbucks-300x269.jpg\")
MCM FILM EXECUTIVE MICHAEL MERINO<\/figcaption><\/figure>\nMichael Merino Award winning writer \/director, MCM-FILMS<\/b> \u00a0\u201cIt is no secret in Hollywood that religious themed movies are hot right now. Look at \u201cRisen\u201d and \u201cHeaven is for Real\u201d \u2013 these are two huge hit and a sequel is already planned. The Bible series was very successful and \u201cThe Passion\u201d still ranks as one of the most profitable films of all time.<\/p>\n
What intrigues us about The Madonna Files is the spectacularly bizarre world of Marian apparitions. When you take a minute to stop and reflect, for a moment, that the Catholic Church, believes that the Mother of Jesus Christ, from time to time, comes from heaven to give messages to the world through intermediaries, usually young children, that have changed the course of history, it is mind boggling.<\/p>\n
We love all of this \u2013 Vatican intrigue, mysterious visions of the Virgin Mary and the great mystery of a town called Medjugorje. \u00a0 \u00a0There is a huge audience for this kind of film.\u201d<\/p>\n
