The film features Brazilian TV star Nana Gouvea, American screen legends Eric Roberts and Tom Sizemore, “Penny Dreadful” actor Jonny Beauchamp, and award-winning actor Rich Graff in a science fiction thriller that has a mismatched team of characters struggling to save the world from an ancient evil that lurks at the bottom of the ocean.

“Black Wake will be released in early 2016 and is sure to be a thrill. After investigating a series of mysterious deaths along the East Coast of the US, one scientist (Nana Gouvea) discovers a danger far worse than anyone can imagine. Now it’s her job to convince other scientists, including Eric’s character, before it’s too late. A detective (Sizemore) becomes involved through the strange writings of a homeless man played by Beauchamp. I am honored to be a part of this film and to watch these great actors on set and on screen.” – Carlos Keyes, Executive Producer, Black Wake
In her 15-year acting career Brazilian TV star and model Nana Gouvea has been a staple of Brazilian soap operas and is the reigning Queen of the Carnivale. Black Wake is her first US-based film.
Eric Roberts started his acting career in the mid-1960’s and has never looked back. With 386 acting credits listed on IMDB, Roberts is one of the most prolific and recognizable figures in Hollywood. His face, voice, and edgy persona are a trademark that lends a deep, powerful aspect to every role he plays. His character in “Black Wave” represents the tipping point to getting the rest of the world to act before it’s too late.
Tom Sizemore is one of the most familiar faces in American cinema. An actor who seems to be in every movie and always gives a powerhouse performance, Sizemore starred in “Saving Private Ryan,” “Black Hawk Down,” and “Heat.” His distinctive style and strong on-screen presence makes “Black Wave” one of the most intense films of the year.
Rich Graff is an American actor who grew up in New York City and has been on US television and movie screens for over a decade. His portrayal of Lucky Luciano in the upcoming TV mini-series, The Making of the Mob: New York, has already earned him acclaim and respect.
Jonny Beauchamp starred in “Penny Dreadful” and is in the upcoming film, “Stonewall.” This young actor is already attracting attention for his arresting look and versatility.
With nearly 100 credits as director, assistant director, and almost every other production position in movies and television, Jeremiah Kipp is one of the hardest working men in film today. He brings his skills to Black Wake and is sure to leave audiences breathless.
Filming of Black Wake is expected to wrap up in August with a tentative release date of early 2016.
Story synopsis: Specialists gather in a top-secret facility to investigate a series of strange deaths on beaches along the Atlantic Ocean. One of the team's scientists (Nana Gouvea) examines video evidence to uncover a possible parasitic explanation for the fatalities. But when a determined detective (Tom Sizemore) sends her the crazed writings of a mysterious homeless man (Jonny Beauchamp), the scientist slowly learns that the actual threat may be more dangerous -- and far older -- than anyone ever imagined. Can she convince her colleagues (led by Eric Roberts) of the true danger before an ancient force rises from the sea to bring madness and death to all of humanity?
