LET IT GO Feature Film Announces Lead Actors
Propel Pictures to produce a feature film about the true life story of Chris Williams, based on his
life, journals, and book, LET IT GO.
The story and script has attracted talent far and wide. The producers have cast Henry Ian
Cusick from the hit television series LOST, and The 100 to play the lead role as Chris Williams.
In addition, the team welcomes Academy Award Nominee Brenda Vacarro. Many other
supporting cast have been selected from a rich talent pool inside and outside of Utah.
The film is set to begin production in Salt Lake City, Utah in June of 2014.
The compelling true story was covered nationally and touched many lives because of Chris’
decision to forgive the underaged drunk driver who tragically killed his pregnant wife, son, and
only daughter in a terrible automobile crash in 2007.
Writers/Directors C.S. Clark and Patrick Henry Parker, the principals of Propel Pictures, learned
about the amazing story shortly after it occurred in 2007 and approached Chris Williams about
producing a documentary about his eventual triumph over tragedy. The response to Chris’s
story and the documentary was remarkable. The team decided to develop a feature length
production about Chris’s incredible journey from tragedy to healing.
“On the surface the story
seems unbelievable, but the reality of letting go of something like this was a daily struggle for
Chris, there are layers to this story that will surprise people” ~ Patrick H. Parker
LET IT GO is sure to be an emotional journey about the human experience of forgiveness and
letting go . A theatrical release date will be announced shortly after production.
Chris Williams has been a consultant on the project.
