New Comedy Film Set For Nationwide Theatrical Release Friday, October

Country star Trace Adkins will soon appear on the big screen in AN AMERICAN CAROL, the new irreverent comedy scheduled for nationwide theatrical release on Friday, October 3.

In An American Carol, Adkins portrays the Angel of Death, one of three spirits visiting an infamous "Hollywood" filmmaker who has made a career out of criticizing America. Each ghost takes him on a hilarious journey in attempt to show the error of his ways and the true meaning of America.

In describing his character, Adkins says, "I'm the guy who performs the same function that the Grim Reaper did in the Charles Dickens' tale - he's showing this guy what the future could possibly look like and is trying to scare him straight."

In casting the role of the "Angel of Death," film director David Zucker (Airplaine!, The Naked Gun, Scary Movie 3 & 4) says, "There were many great ideas that came to mind, (Adkins, Farley - Photo by Sam Emerson/Mpower) but Trace Adkins stood out as someone strong enough to carry it, intimidating with his physical presence and resonating voice."

Adkins, who is also gearing up to release his tenth country album in November comments further, "It was really cool playing a character who holds life and death in his hands."

In addition to Adkins, the movie features Kevin Farley, Kelsey Grammer, Leslie Neilsen, Dennis Hopper, James Woods, Robert Davi, Geoffrey Arend, Serdar Kalsin and Jon Voight.
