Robert Rodriguez is teaming up with Bold Films for ‘Blood’, a twisted tale of one woman’s search for her biological family. Rodriguez does it all, write, direct, produce, and compose. He has many films and series to his credit including ‘From Dusk Till Dawn’ (the film and the series), ‘Grind House’, ‘Sin City’, ‘The Faculty’, ‘Machete’ and many more. He also owns the El Rey Network that delivers fantastic films and series. It’s still unkown if Rodriguez will be in the director’s chair for ‘Blood’.

Jeff Buhler has been brought on to rewrite the script, originally penned by Misha Green.

Legendary makeup artist and actor Tom Savini has worked on films such classics as Friday the 13th, Day of the Dead and many others. Out of all of his roles he is most well recognized as “Sex Machine” in 1996’s From Dusk Till Dawn. I mean, who could forget that crotch gun? Savini has now joined the cast of season 3 of Robert Rodriguez’s From Dusk Till Dawn series, which airs on Rodriguez’s El Rey Network. The 10 episode season is currently filming in New Mexico. Savini will not be reprising his roles as Sex Machine, but will instead star as Burt, a retired demon hunter who makes a living selling Marijuana. The series stars D.J. Cotrona and Zane Holtz as the Gecko brothers, roles originally played in the feature film, which Rodriguez also directed, by George Clooney and Quentin Tarantino.

If you thought the El Rey Network couldn’t get any cooler, you were wrong! The Network, founded by filmmaker Robert Rodriguez, has just announced a handful of new acquisitions, including ‘Almost Human’, ‘The Twilight Zone’, ‘Freddy’s Nightmares’, ‘Human Target’, ‘V: The Series’, ‘Night Visions’ and, hold on to your seats, ‘Constantine’. Both ‘Constantine‘ and ‘Almost Human’ will debut on El Rey this November. The network is in the process of acquiring even more series as we speak. I know fans of ‘Constantine’ are very happy to hear this news. Fans took to social media in droves to vent their disappointment when NBC canceled the series after just one fantastic season. My hope is that El Rey will decide to pick up where NBC left off and continue the series that follows Constantine (Matt Ryan), a wizard/demon hunter. The series was based on the Hellblazer graphic novel by Garth Ennis and Warren Ellis. Constantine was created by Allen Moore and first
