Principal Photography Begins May 4th, 2026.
Space Samurai, Inc. was officially formed on May 4th, and years later, on that same date, we begin shooting.
We didn’t plan that coincidence, and it’s a date that’s very special to us.
WHERE WE ARE
Our UPM (Unit Production Manager) is engaged and building out the department heads. DGA and SAG filings are already provided.
Location scouting, production design, costume design, and an assistant director are being lined up on a 9-week pre-production calendar that’s already active.
We are hiring crew. We are locking locations. The machine is moving.
WHAT THIS MEANS FOR YOU
If you want to visit the set, we will provide a Production contact for coordination.
If you’re interested in a cast role, we will provide the Casting Director’s name and contact information.
If you’re interested in crew work, we will provide the appropriate department contact.
Those names and contacts will follow in a separate communication.
PRODUCT PLACEMENT, MUSIC & INVESTMENT
All product placement, music licensing, and investment opportunities must be locked before production begins.
Once we start shooting, the window closes. There is no going back to add placements after cameras roll.
If you’ve been in discussions with us, now is the time to finalize.
WHAT’S NEXT
After this update, we’re going dark for a while.
The team is heads-down in pre-production.
When we surface, it’ll be with production updates from the ground.
