Robert Gant and Shannen Doherty to Star in here! Networks’ New Spy Franchise

Kiss Me Deadly: A Jacob Keane Assignment Wraps Production Marking the First in a Franchise of Spy Films Featuring an Openly Gay Action Hero

LOS ANGELES--(BUSINESS WIRE)--here!, America’s premium gay television network, is pleased to announce the wrap of production on Kiss Me Deadly: A Jacob Keane Assignment, the first installment in the Jacob Keane Assignment series of original, feature-length spy thrillers. Kiss Me Deadly stars Queer as Folk alum Robert Gant and television icon Shannen Doherty. The film, directed by Ron Oliver and written by George Schenck and Frank Cardea, shot in New Zealand last month.

“We are excited to bring the spy thriller genre to the LGBT community with the Kiss Me Deadly,” said Stephen P. Jarchow, Founder and Chairman, here! Networks. “With the talented and openly gay Robert Gant and the dynamic Shannen Doherty, Kiss Me Deadly is an exciting addition to our original programming slate. We welcome this opportunity to flex our company mandate of embracing talented actors and creating memorable gay characters for our audience.”

Jacob Keane (Gant) is a photographer living the family life in Milan with his loving boyfriend, Paolo, and Julia, the daughter he shares with his lesbian friend, Kyra. When a young woman, Marta (Doherty), arrives from his past life, he is pulled back into the high-stakes world of international espionage. Together they must elude a mysterious enemy threatening to disrupt their now-quiet lives. Out actor Ian Roberts (Superman Returns) co-stars as the villainous Vigo, while John Rhys-Davies (Lord of the Rings trilogy) plays the heroic Yale, a former colleague of Jacob and Marta.

Gant is best known for starring as Ben on the hit Showtime series Queer as Folk. In addition to his acting duties, he recently formed the production company Mythgarden with partners Chad Allen and Christopher Racster. Mythgarden recently produced its first film, Save Me, in which Gant also starred. Save Me screened at the Sundance Film Festival in 2007. Off screen, Gant remains active in the LGBT community working with Senior Advocacy for GLBT Elders (SAGE) and Gay and Lesbian Elder Housing (GLEH).

Doherty, who made her breakout in the film Heathers, starred for four years on the hit Aaron Spelling series Beverly Hills, 90210. She followed that up with rolls in the films Almost Dead and Mallrats before landing a gig on the popular UPN series 'Charmed', co-starring Alyssa Milano and Holly Marie Combs. Most recently she starred with Gina Gershon, Randy Quaid and Robert Wagner in the CBS thriller Category 7: The End of the World.

AN INFAMOUS JEWEL THIEF FINDS HER HEART IN
THE ABC FAMILY ORIGINAL MOVIE ‘CHRISTMAS CAPER’

Shannen Doherty Stars In The Heartwarming Holiday Film


Burbank, CA (October 29, 2007) – Christmas festivities bring cheer to one and all, but can they warm up the hardened heart of a notorious jewel thief on the lam? Shannen Doherty ('Beverly Hills 90210') plays a dark haired beauty with a twinkle in her eye and a penchant for lifting expensive stones in the ABC Family original film CHRISTMAS CAPER, premiering on Sunday, November 25th (8:00 – 10:00 PM ET/PT) as part of ABC Family’s 'Countdown to Christmas' programming event.

After a jewel heist gone awry and being double-crossed by her mentor, Cate Dove (Doherty) is forced into hiding after her face is plastered all over the news. When the opportunity arises, she jumps at the chance to get out of the city and babysit for her niece and nephew. There is only one problem….Cate is not the maternal type. But ever the opportunist, Cate makes the most of her suburban prison by using her distain for sentimentality to plot a grinch-like heist of the entire town’s Christmas loot. However, what Cate hasn’t counted on is the romantic effect of a certain hunky Sheriff (who also happens to be her ex-boyfriend), and her precocious niece and nephew’s ability to touch her heart and conscience.

Her plan is interrupted when her ex-partner in crime returns, jeopardizing not only her heist, but also the safety of the people she’s come to love. She’ll have to make the decision to run away, as she usually does, or stay and fight for what she knows in her heart is the only treasure worth protecting – her family.
