Charlotte Kirk, recognized for her notable performances in films like The Duchess and The Lair, is set to take on the lead role in the upcoming indie crime thriller Myra, directed by seasoned action filmmaker R. Ellis Frazier. The film, which is currently being shot in Tijuana, Mexico, explores the gritty world of crime, betrayal, and survival. Kirk stars as Myra, a former gang member who finds herself on the run after a heist goes wrong in Los Angeles. With $2 million in bearer bonds in her possession, she flees to Mexico, only to discover that betrayal has serious consequences. Her ex-lover, Tony (played by Gary Daniels), a ruthless gang leader, soon learns of the double-cross and embarks on a mission to hunt her down.
As Myra races against time, she has only 36 hours to convert the bonds, escape her past, and secure a future free from the dangerous life she once knew. But Tony is not the only one chasing her—she must also outwit a vicious local crime boss (Roberto Sanchez) and a corrupt police officer (Corin Nemec), all while navigating the treacherous world of crime and retribution. The story is a high-stakes thriller that examines the age-old truth: stolen money comes with perilous consequences.
Joining Kirk in the ensemble cast are Gary Daniels (The Expendables), Mike Ferguson (Showdown at the Grand), Roberto Sanchez (2 Fast 2 Furious), Mauricio Mendoza (Deadpool 2), and Corin Nemec (Place of Bones), all bringing depth and intensity to their roles in this action-packed narrative. The screenplay was written by Benjamin Budd (Hustle Down), with Jorge Ariel Gardea (Seized) and R. Ellis Frazier producing for Badhouse Studios Mexico, and Marci Lee serving as executive producer for Altitude Productions.
