New show “Barry” and “Parker’s Anchor” release date
Chris will appear on a new TV show called Barry on HBO in 2018. He posted the trailer on his own Twitter account yesterday. According to Wikipedia,
Barry centers on ex-Marine Barry who works as a low-rent hitman in the Midwest. Lonely and dissatisfied in his life, he begrudgingly travels to Los Angeles to kill someone and ends up finding an accepting community in a group of eager hopefuls within the LA theater scene.
Chris is not listed in the cast credits there, so chances are that his role is fairly small.
In other news, Chris’s movie Parker’s Anchor will be released for home entertainment early next year. It was announced on Twitter that the movie will come out on DVD on Jan 9, 2018 and digitally on Feb 6, 2018.

“I Hate The Man In My Basement” at Tallgrass Festival
Chris’s film I Hate The Man In My Basement has been chosen as one of the four films in Tallgrass’s flagship Stubbornly Independent competition. Along with 20 Weeks, Blur Circle, and Bomb City, the film is going to be juried by a panel of industry professionals. The Stubbornly Independent award is given in his honor to an independent film or filmmaker who takes risks and isn’t afraid to tell important stories, and does all of this within the ultra-low budget of $500,000 or less.
The 15th annual Tallgrass Film Festival takes place October 18-22, 2017 in Wichita, Kansas. More information can be found on the Tallgrass website.
