Principal photography is under way in Los Angeles.

Cedar Park Entertainment recently expanded its operation to include acquisition and distribution of film and television projects after formalizing a partnership with Raven Capital Management (“Raven”), the New York based private equity firm led by founder Josh Green and entertainment group head James Masciello.

“Working on ‘Good Mourning with a U’ is really exciting for us at Cedar Park Studios. We fell in love with the script early on and are glad to be a part of this special project with Colson and MOD SUN,” Long said.

Baker is represented by Paradigm Talent Agency and manager Ashleigh Veverka. Mod Sun is represented by CAA and manager David Beame.
