It was announced today that Demian Gregory and James Franco have partnered to produce four feature films with budgets in the range of $15-20 million. Gregory will produce and finance with Aristocracy Group and Composite Media Capital in partnership with James Franco's outfit Rabbit Bandini Productions. The titles in the production slate comprise talent-driven stories, ranging from comedy to thriller and high-end drama. The first film to enter production is "The Game."

"The Game" is based on the best-selling book by Neil Strauss. Part memoir, part how-to-guide, "The Game" details Strauss's effort to learn the tricks to BECOMING a successful pick-up artist, even moving into a Sunset Strip mansion filled with other competing players to find love.

Franco will star as 'Mystery,' a man who serves as Strauss' "wingman" in the book. Demian Gregory will produce alongside Vince Jolivette ("Spring Breakers"), James Franco and executive producers Nicholas Cafritz and Robert Reed Peterson. The film has been fast-tracked and is scheduled to enter production in 2017, with the producers now looking to attach additional cast and director.

Aristocracy Group is a consortium of vertically integrated media companies specializing in production and financing of filmed entertainment privately held by Demian Gregory. Composite Media Capital is a US-based film finance outfit launched by Demian Gregory, Nicholas Cafritz and Robert Reed Peterson. With offices in London and Los Angeles, Aristocracy Group and Composite Media Capital are currently producing 5-6 sophisticated and commercially-driven feature films per year.
