John Charles Meyer is Doctor Glamour!
John was brilliant as Frank DanCoolo, but there's more to my decision to cast him than familiarity. This guy, in addition to being a working actor on shows for ABC, CBS and a myriad of others, is a legit rock singer.
Former front man of the band Strawman, he's the real damn deal. As the Doctor, he's gonna kick your ass and you'll thank him for it.
I've seen Chris play just about everything. He brings reality and pathos to everything he does. Gilman is the first time I need someone to do some emotional heavy lifting on screen. I know Chris can do that.
I also have seen Chris in naught but whitey tighties, screaming into a microphone with more insane power than most of my punk rock idols. He's got the music covered.
Priscilla McEver is Eve Walpurgis!
Don't recognize her?
That's better!
I am probably really, really screwing up by not crafting this movie around Priscilla in the lead again (wait for the feature script). What a freaking genius. People came up to me at every film festival, wrote me e-mails and even called up and mentioned how brilliant she was as Holly Malone.
It's also not often you find an actor who's so good you want to cast them in a complete opposite role just for FUN. She had an epic amount of dialog and a purposefully gender neutral ensemble in "DanCoolo". This time around it's a silent film role and she gets big frilly dresses!

I'm so thrilled with having these guys on board. They are going to make this thing happen. Want proof? Well, just so you don't think this post is all about kissing ass, here's a SONG FROM "DOCTOR GLAMOUR"!!!
