I apologize for the lack of recent updates, but my personal life has been very hectic and I just haven’t had much time to work on the site. Things are slowly settling down again though, so I should be able to start adding new photos and what not very soon. In the meantime, the official Demoted site has been launched and contains a trailer and some small stills (click here to view the stills in our gallery).

Downtown Milford serves as Hollywood backdrop

Posted on 10.16.2008 in Demoted and Film News & Reviews | 0 Comments

Hollywood magic turned drizzle into instant sunshine in downtown Milford last week.

Excited star gazers gathered on Main Street hoping to see the cast of “Demoted,” a comedy about two tire executives who suffer payback when a mistreated employee gets ahead, and they are demoted.

“I bought a coffee and heard they were filming,” beamed Milford resident Linda Shady.

“This is just so exciting! Michael Vartan was posing for pictures.”

Michael Vartan (”Alias”), Sean Astin (”Lord of the Rings”), Sarah Foster (”The Big Bounce”) and Patrick St. Esprit (”Bury My Heart at Wounded Knee”) walked the streets of Milford between scenes.

“I am really enjoying my time in Michigan,” said Vartan. “People are very nice, and it’s great to be here.”

St. Espirit echoed the sentiment adding, “This is a charming community.”

Gina’s Bridal Shop and The Village Florist were two of several Milford locations selected for scenes. Judi Licavoli, owner of Gina’s, was thrilled to have a shopping sequence take place in her store.

Michael Vartan and David Cross Get ‘Demoted’

Posted on 07.23.2008 in Demoted and Film News & Reviews | 0 Comments

We’ve already got The Promotion, but just in case you were itching for more man-on-man office wars, a whole new battling duo is on the way. The Hollywood Reporter posts that Michael Vartan and David Cross are going to play “bitter tire store rivals” in a new comedy called Demoted, that American Pie 2 helmer J.B. Rogers will direct from actor and writer Dan Callahan’s screenplay.

In a step down from his character’s success on Big Shots, Vartan will play a guy named “Rodney McAdams, a hotshot Treadline Tires sales associate who delights in tormenting his less-than-cool colleague, Ken (Cross).” But wait — before you think Cross is being relegated to another role where he just gets tormented and takes it, or has a fear of nudity, read on: “When their boss suddenly dies, Ken is promoted and assigns Rodney to a secretarial job as payback, giving the male chauvinist a taste of his own medicine.” You just don’t cross the Cross!
