Mr. Flynn&#8217;s movie and his character are both \t  called, &#8220;Father Harrigan&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>If you were a lover of &#8220;The X Files&#8221; and\/or, &#8220;Kolchak: The Night  Stalker&#8221;, we&#8217;ve got a feeling you&#8217;re going to love &#8220;Father Harrigan&#8221;.  It&#8217;s  going to seem comfortably familiar, but surprisingly new at the same  time.  The good Father is a rogue of an Irish Priest who has a penchant for  chasing  paranormal bad guys.  Whether they&#8217;re Ghosts, Vampires or Aliens,  Harrigan is just the man to hunt them down.<\/p>\n<p>The Film is a Paranormal Mystery\/Thriller, with a huge dose of very funny dialog, that keeps the audience laughing between the shocks &amp; suspense.  If you&#8217;re looking for gore, violence, nudity or profanity, this may not be your &#8220;cup of tea&#8221;. But if you&#8217;re looking for an ensemble of fascinating characters you&#8217;ve never met before, a suspenseful story that surprises you with each unpredictable twist &amp; turn, beautiful ladies and men of action, then &#8220;Father Harrigan&#8221; is a movie that will definitely satisfy your tastes.<\/p>\n<p>Harrigan is more of a &#8220;rebel&#8221; than a traditional &#8220;Man of the Cloth&#8221;.  He often finds himself fighting the Church Hierarchy as much as &#8220;Creatures &amp; Demons&#8221;.  Simply put, he&#8217;s a Man of God and a bit of a rogue, with the gift of the blarney.  Most of his &#8220;Churchly Confederates&#8221; would like to see him kicked out of the Priesthood, so the &#8220;Powers That Be&#8221; send him to a little old church in \ta poor, small town, hoping he&#8217;ll retire.  But the Demons, UFOs &amp; Men In Black keep Father Harrigan way too busy to hang up his collar.<\/p>\n<p>George Flynn began collaborating with Brad Wilson several years ago when the two became good friends &amp; allies as they worked together on the Family Drama, &#8220;<a href=\"http:\/\/www.setapartthemovie.com\/\" target=\"_new\">Set Apart<\/a>&#8220;.<\/p>\n<p>For 11 years, Brad ran Academy Award Winning Actor, Robert Duvall&#8217;s Production Company.  Together they worked on eighteen feature films, including &#8220;COLORS&#8221; w\/Sean Penn, &#8220;DAYS OF THUNDER&#8221; w\/Tom Cruise &amp; Nicole Kidman, &#8220;FALLING DOWN&#8221; w\/Michael Douglas and the critically acclaimed &#8220;WRESTLING EARNEST HEMINGWAY&#8221; w\/Richard Harris &amp; Shirley MacLaine.<\/p>\n<p>But the Father Harrigan Team reaches further than from Hollywood to Colorado.  Talents such as British Actor <a href=\"http:\/\/www.frankieoatway.com\/\" target=\"_new\">Frankie Oatway<\/a> and Australian Talent Tony Gunter will be partnering up to play two very mysterious International Paranormal Investigators.  In addition, George Flynn&#8217;s interesting casting has put real life Chief of Police &amp; Master Firearms Instructor, Rich Wyatt, into the role of Chief Rich Wyatt.  Director Flynn explains, &#8220;Chief Wyatt is Father Harrigan&#8217;s Inspector Lestrade&#8230; but he&#8217;s Lestrade with an edge &amp; an attitude!&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>There are far too many talented &amp; experienced professionals involved in &#8220;Father Harrigan&#8221; who have been George&#8217;s longtime friends &amp; Allies during \t  his 40+ year career.  One Gentleman of particular interest is \tActor\/Director\/Stuntman <a href=\"http:\/\/www.asgardentertainment.com\/\" target=\"_new\">Mark Grove<\/a>.  \tHe will not only be overseeing the challenging physical effects &amp; stunts in the film, but he will also be playing the ominous &amp; powerful Leader of the movie&#8217;s dangerous Men in Black.<\/p>\n<p>If you&#8217;d like to stay on top of the progress of this promising new film, sign up for the &#8220;Free Fan Club Membership &amp; Updates&#8221;coming to our website soon!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Colorado based Actor\/Writer\/Director George Flynn of LionHawk Entertainment and his Partner, Veteran Hollywood Producer Brad Wilson are in the process of creating something we all hope to see, when we watch a Movie for the first time: a Character &amp; a Story we understand , but have never seen before.
