Actress, Virginia Jones (best known for PORTLANDIA), who plays a Christian Nationalist supporter, also says, "BULLETS OVER ANTEBELLUM is an absolutely bonkers satire about the darkest parts of the American experience.  It is at once phenomenally silly, and very very sad."

Cinematographer, Alessandro Gentile (best known for SCHITT'S CREEK, and SOMETHING REAL AND GOOD) signed on to the project, and says, "I think that BULLETS OVER ANTEBELLUM is extremely witty on its satirical take on the US government. It's over the top dialogue really drives the film's absurd narrative."

Actor, Philip McGrade, best known for his work in HOW TO TRAIN YOUR DRAGON and THE LATE LATE SHOW WITH CRAIG FERGUSON, plays a secret agent who gathers information while performing as a drag queen.  He's quoted as saying, "I love working with Richard and I can't wait to see how it all turns out. Such a great concept, I wish I'd thought of it!"

With production wrapped, BULLETS OVER ANTEBELLUM now enters the post-production phase, where the creative team will craft the humorous, yet thought-provoking narrative. Tucci's vision is to maintain a witty and entertaining tone while shedding light on contemporary social tensions and raising awareness of their potential implications.
