EXCLUSIVE: The Walking Dead actor Katelyn Nacon and NHL Hall of Famer Phil Esposito have signed on to star in the horror comedy Hacked: A Double Entendre of Rage Fueled Karma alongside veteran actor Richard Riehle.

The feature from Shane Brady and Emily Zercher follows kids Ralph (Owen Atlas) and Freddy (Collin Thompson), who lead the charge with their parents, Amy (Augie Duke) and Mark (Shane Brady), to take down the world’s most elusive hacker, “The Chameleon” (Chandler Riggs) after their family has everything stolen from them.

Also joining the cast are Xavier Jimenez (The Book of Boba Fett), Brett Maline (Loki Season 2), Jaime Moyer (A.P. BIO), and Rob Belushi (Get a Clue). Local Florida charities Be The Match, and TSC Alliance have also partnered with the filmmakers.

Filmed in Tampa Bay, the pic features several prominent Tampa Bay landmarks, including Frenchy’s Rockaway Grill, Big Storm Brewing, JC Newman Cigar Co., and Bluffs Animal Hospital. Local Floridian filmmakers working on the project include Emmy award winner Evan Zissimopulos as Director of Photography, with post-production continuing in Tampa with Matthew Reisinger as sound designer and Chris Dudley of Tampa heavy metal band Underoath scoring the film.

“Working with Chandler (Riggs) again on a project, but this time in a comedy, has been a lot of fun. This script is wild, and it’s been a blast to play around and improvise with one of my favorite scene partners,” said Nacon.

Apple earnings see 10% iPhone sales drop, massive buyback fuels stock jump
Apple on Thursday reported a 10% drop in iPhone sales for the second fiscal quarter, dropping from $51.33 billion to $45.96 billion, year-over-year. Apple’s slow adoption of AI versus competitors like Google and Microsoft likely played a role in consumers’ decision to hold off on purchasing a new iPhone. Apple has promised some big announcements on that front (likely at WWDC in June), but the iPhone 16 itself likely won’t arrive until fall.
