Kristen Bell is headed back to Netflix to topline a new comedy series.
The Frozen and The Good Place actress will star in an untitled show from creator Erin Foster (Barely Famous) and executive producer Steven Levitan (Modern Family, Reboot) about “the unlikely relationship between an irreverent, outspoken, agnostic woman and an unconventional rabbi,” per the show’s logline. Bell will play the agnostic woman and also serve as an executive producer.
The series is the second at Netflix for Bell, who also starred in the streamer’s thriller parody The Woman in the House Across the Street From the Girl in the Window last year.
Bell is coming off Amazon’s feature film The People We Hate at the Wedding and will be part of the voice cast for an upcoming Paw Patrol movie. Her credits also include Queenpins, Hulu’s Veronica Mars revival and the Bad Moms movies.

Whenever I went camping in the woods when I was a young'un, what scared me more than anything was being lost. There was something about the wilderness that seemed so…infinite, so all encompassing that if I went too far off the trail or lost contact with whoever I was with, I would never get back — it would swallow me whole. Now, combine that with tons of snow and oppressive cold.
Andrew Hyatt's feature length debut, The Frozen, reminded me mightily of that fear. The snowy mountain ranges depicted in the film are breathtaking in their beauty, but it doesn't take very long for that beauty to curdle into something very sinister.

Here’s a bit of advice fellas: if your girlfriend wants to go on vacation with you, don’t take her on a camping trip in the middle of nowhere during the winter. Not only will you not get laid, you may find yourself being stalked and taunted by a creepy stranger. In The Frozen, a couple soon realizes that their romantic getaway isn’t what they had planned when things start going awry. The result is a repetitive and predictable horror with a storyline that is all too familiar with horror audiences.
The film opens with Emma, played by Brit Morgan of True Blood, in the midst of taking a pregnancy test. When the test comes back positive, the distraught young woman decides to hide the news from her boyfriend as they embark on their camping trip together. It is apparent from the start that Emma is uncomfortable with the news,...

*full disclosure: a DVD screener of this film was provided by Arc Entertainment. Director/writer: Andrew Hyatt. Cast: Seth David Mitchell, Brit Morgan, and Noah Segan. Tagline: "Pray for help." The Frozen is an indie thriller from first time director Andrew Hyatt. The film deals with an argumentative couple who travel on a snowmobiling adventure. They hit a bump and a surreal element enters the picture. Slowly paced and anti-climactic, The Frozen still manages to stay mostly interesting. Thankfully, the ending offers a surprise. This film is a solid first step for an up-and-coming new director. Mike (Seth David Mitchell) and Emma (Brit Morgan) are the couple setting out on their highland outing. They pick a terrible time to go hiking. It is Winter time and they have chosen an isolated locale to park their tent. This might be a bad choice for experienced hikers. Needless to say, Emma and...

Red Sea Media is experiencing its first Cannes. Founded in November 2011 by Roman Kopelevich and Roman Viaris, the company is backed by Russian investors. Its initial slate of films is quite strong for such a new company. Aside from the two action films Anchor Bay just acquired for all English speaking territories, Officer Down (Stephen Dorff and James Woods) and Pawn (Forest Whitaker, Ray Liotta and Nikki Reed), the slate includes A White Trash Christmas (Taryn Manning, Eric Roberts, Beverly D’Angelo), West Texas Lullaby (Val Kilmer), The Frozen (Brit Morgan), The Stoning Of Soraya M (Jim Caviezel) and Snowmen (Ray Liotta), and Frankie Go Boom (from Sundance). They get films from diverse sources, including from his attorney, Elsa Ramo who represents financiers and producers. He wants to establish a brand as a source of Russian films such as those by Serge Selyanov (Mongol) who is also a distributor in Russia (Nashe Kino). His main investor is Vadim Goryainov. The company was established when a friend of his mother (who is also in the business) approached him with 3 Moscow based companies.
While the company is new, Kopelevich himself has over 20 years of experience. Prior to Red Sea Media, he served as head of sales at Bleiberg Entertainment, where he sold the critically acclaimed films The Band’S Visit and Adam Resurrected (Jeff Goldblum). Previously, at Morgan Creek, Kopelevich sold the rights to The Good Shepherd (Matt Damon, Angelina Jolie and Robert De Niro) as well as Two For The Money (Al Pacino and Matthew McConaughey). Prior to that, he worked at Media 8 Entertainment, where he handled foreign rights for Academy Award winner Monster (Charlize Theron); The Upside Of Anger (Kevin Costner); Havoc (Anne Hathaway); Man About Town (Ben Affleck) and Running Scared (Paul Walker). His first film job was in 1991 with New World under Brandon Tartikoff and Ben Silverman who is currently the founder and CEO of Electus, a next generation entertainment studio staked by Iac's Barry Diller. His stint with New World continued after Ron Pearlman sold the company to Fox News Corps for $2 billion which helped to establish Fox Network into what it became 2 years later.
The first time we met Roman Kopelevich was during the internet bubble days of 2000 when FilmFinders was the acquired by iFilm and was the darling of all the film internet sites because it was one of two film databases in existence, Roman was working with FilmBazaar.com which covered Cannes that year with its Orange signage. We have since found out that he was born in Lithuania in 1971 and immigrated to America when he was seven years old with his twin sister and his parents who were Russian Jews.
The other Roman who owns the company is, Roman Viaris, formerly with Comerica Bank, as well as Nu Image Entertainment and served as the CFO of Voltage Pictures.
