CAST

As word of the project spread, 80 actors responded to a low-key open casting call put out by Blue Bomber Entertainment just one month before the beginning of principal photography. From that talented group of area actors several principal parts and nearly all of the day parts were cast. By the end of the project about 150 local performers contributed to FUGITIVE HUNTER.

This up-and-coming actor, writer, and producer began acting professionally at the age of 16 with an outstanding debut with the Sacramento Theatre Company as "Jackie Robinson" in MR. RICKEY CALLS A MEETING, directed by Michael Haney. His debut feature film was RIGID METHODS, an independent feature film directed by Chris Thomas in 1998. Wayne wrote, produced, and starred in that film and has continued to expand his knowledge and skills in the worlds of professional film, television and theatre. He has also produced and directed commercials currently running, with NBC, PAX & WB affiliates in the San Francisco Bay Area.
