Hello, Hollywood! Are You Ready for The Lance and the Veil?

Back2Future

Author Kevin Rush goes “Back to the Future.”  Tell Doc Brown to bring the DeLorean around.


On August 28th, I flew out to Los Angeles to renew old acquaintances and talk to a few folks in and out of the entertainment industry about The Lance and the Veil. First, though, on orders from one of my beloved sisters, I had to chase down Zachary Levi to get autographs for my niece and nephew. They were big fans of Chuck on NBC and had seen Zack on Broadway a couple of years back, when he had been gracious enough to pose for pictures after the show with the whole family. He was equally gracious when I ran into him and said my sister had given me a mission.

Later, I heard from several folks who loved Lance and Veil, including a Christian producer who envisions it as a TV miniseries.

One of the highlights of my trip was a tour of the backlot of Universal Studios. My guide, Willie Gillespie, drove much of the route that the tour follows, but we were able to stop and take a few pictures, something visitors who take the tram are not able to do.

Struck a creepy Norman Bates pose and waited for my Janet Leigh, who, fortunately for her, never arrived.

Stopped by to check on Mother, who was seated at the window, but was clearly off her rocker.

Producer’s Endorsement of The Lance and the Veil

Ready for prime time?

I have the privilege of being on the email list for a producer in Hollywood working to establish a Christian entertainment studio. In his weekly email blast this Saturday, he mentioned The Lance and the Veil in a roundabout way, writing:

Whenever I can free a few moments, I continue to enjoy reading a book written by a friend…. It would make a tremendous multi-episode television special and subsequent streaming and DVD release. With study guides, it could also be of interest to church and Bible study groups, too.

I pray often for his success, because he is a good Christian gentleman with the utmost dedication to serving the Lord through quality, faith-based entertainment. Our work seems to have several possible points of intersection, and it would be my pleasure to work with him sometime in the future. But, if not with him, I’m confident someone in Hollywood will see the merits of Lance and Veil when it’s brought to their attention. That starts with building an audience for the novel, which I work at daily. Your help in that regard is greatly appreciated.
