A producer on “Rust” is backing another independent film, “Sam & Kate,” starring Dustin Hoffman and Sissy Spacek, which is set to begin production early next year.
Ryan Smith is helping to finance the film, which is set to shoot in Thomasville, Ga., starting in mid-February. A source close to the project said that Smith is putting in a portion of the financing and will get an executive producer credit, but that he and his company will not be involved in physical production.
Smith, his business partner Allen Cheney, and their company, Thomasville Pictures, have been named in two lawsuits stemming from the fatal shooting on the set of “Rust” last month in New Mexico. Actor Alec Baldwin was preparing for a scene when he shot and killed cinematographer Halyna Hutchins and wounded the film’s director. The film has shut down indefinitely.

In Los Angeles, this sentiment spurred Salem Ilese, Bendik Møller, and Jason Hahs to write “Mad at Disney,” which has now turned into one of 2020’s fast-moving viral hits. Hahs convened a writing session in August 2019, not long after he watched The Lion King remake; he was less than thrilled. “I said,...
