Company to Pre-Sell Film At Cannes Film Festival

1st Miracle Group, Inc. MVEE today announced that it has secured the rights to produce "Held for Ransom" based on the book "Ransom" by Lois Duncan, author of "I Know What You Did Last Summer".

Additionally, the Company is presently in discussions with several US distributors.

"Held for Ransom" is a teen thriller about five high school teens kidnapped from a school bus and the drama that subsequently ensues. The screen adaptation of "Ransom" will be written and directed by Emmy Award winner Lee Stanley and will be produced by Randall Emmett and George Furla whose previous First Miracle productions include "Speedway Junky" starring Daryl Hannah and Jonathan Taylor Thomas and "I'm Over Here" starring Andrew "Dice" Clay, as well as "Escape to Grizzly Mountain" starring Dan Haggerty and "After Sex" starring Brooke Shields.

We are currently in discussions with several high profile teen actors for the film's principle roles and would anticipate having these agreements finalized shortly. Additionally, we will begin pre-selling the project at the upcoming Cannes Film Festival and would anticipate significant interest based on the tremendous team we have assembled to oversee the film's development."
