“Ragged Edge” cast to reprise their roles for “In His Steps: The Series”

COLORADO — February 1, 2012 — Actors Ken Lawrence and Cesar Marquez have been signed on to reprise their roles from “Ragged Edge” in Standing Sun Productions’ upcoming web series “In His Steps: The Series”.  Cesar Marquez will play Jack Manning, the homeless man who shakes the people of the First Church of Raymond out of their comfortable church routines.  Ken Lawrence will play Henry Maxwell, pastor of the First Church and leader of the group making a pledge to follow the motto “What would Jesus do.”

“To say I’m excited would be an understatement,” writer/producer/director Zack Lawrence said.  “It was such a blast to work with two such talented actors, and I’m looking forward to the privilege again.  It just wouldn’t feel right to continue the story we started in ‘Ragged Edge’ without them!”

“Ragged Edge” (www.standingsun.com/raggededge) is the short film prequel to “In His Steps,” and tells the story of how Jack Manning lost everything leading up to his arrival in the city of Raymond.  It has screened at four film festivals across the country and has been very well received by audiences.

“It’s a tough story to watch,” Lawrence said.  “Usually if people like a movie, they applaud at the end.  But there’s almost never any applause once the credits start rolling!  But when people talk to me afterward, they have nothing but good things to say.”

To help promote the new series, “Ragged Edge” will be released for online viewing on February 21, 2012, the one year anniversary of its initial release.

“Come this fall, people will finally be able to see what happens to Jack!  I’m sure they won’t be disappointed.  Of course, it’s no secret if you’ve read the book!”

Principal photography on the first season of “In His Steps: The Series” is set to begin in May of 2012.  The show will premiere online in September of 2012.  For more information, visit www.InHisStepsTheSeries.com.
