Not only that, but we also have the shooting schedule for those who are looking forward to it. Robert Rodriguez will write and direct for this, which will center around a young girl who is the daughter of a superhero who has since been retired. She then discovers she has powers, thus putting together a group of young individuals who will unite to fight off an alien invasion.
Shooting will begin on June 17th of this year in Austin, Texas with Ben Ormand as the producer. Below you will find the character breakdowns:
- Wild Card: A male of any ethnicity, they are looking for someone between 10-12 years of age who will be the son of a heroic individual. Wild Card is supposed to be cool and full of “swagger”, who has a lot to learn when it comes to harnessing his power and using it. He is the self-described leader of the group, which initially puts him in conflict with Missy, as she takes the reins. Eventually, he lets her take the reins and actually acknowledges that she is not only good for the lead role, but that she has helped him as well.
- Wheels: A male of any ethnicity who is 10-12 years of age. Known for popping wheelies in his wheelchair, he is the son of a superhero. He tells Missy that his “legs are too strong to be supported by his bones”. He is super strong.

She can predict the future, which Missy catches onto quickly in this. Ojo is a secret agent as well, but she soon realizes she wants to be aligned with Missy’s group.
