Luciana Carro Fans

As we reported before, Luciana’s new action movie/thriller Urgency will be released on DVD for rental at VideoEzy stores today, November 18, in Australia. So, any Australian fan of Luciana might want to check this movie out and watch her in a role that is quite different from her previous ones.

In case you don’t want to just rent it but to permanently add the film to your collection, you will have to wait until February 18, when it will be made available for buying (also only in Australia). We don’t know yet if and when the movie will be available in other parts of the world.

Thanks to lilylemony of The Combs Corner for finding out the release dates for this film.

For anyone who hasn’t heard of this movie before, here is the official synopsis:

Tony West is a successful pharmaceutical executive living in LA with his loving wife [Luciana]. But after a day of tense negotiations with potential buyers, Tony comes home to find his wife has been kidnapped and that the kidnappers demand he bring $50,000 to them within 90 minutes or she’s dead.

Armed with only his wits and his cell phone, he has no choice but to comply. He soon realizes that this kidnapping is tied to information that he possesses, and people he knows are willing to kill him to get it. As he unravels more and more of the mystery, he realizes that the list of people he can trust is getting shorter and shorter. As time runs out, Tony must decide who is on his side, and who wants him dead.

We reported before that Luciana’s new thriller, Urgency, (starring Brian Austin Green, Jeffrey Combs and Luciana Carro) will most likely be released in Australia in November. Now our friend lilylemony, who runs a blog about Jeffrey Combs, called The Combs Corner), did some research and shared the latest information with us on the fanboard.

Urgency (Australian DVD)

The movie will indeed be released in November (on November 18, to be exact) in Australia, but only for rental. Urgency will be available for buying in Australia on February 18, 2010. This is a bit longer than we had hoped for, but less than four months isn’t really that long, is it?

In the meantime, you can check out the website of Urgency’s Australian distributor, Peacock Films, and watch the trailer there.

Unfortunatley, there is still no information when this movie will be released in other parts of the word.

It’s been more than two months since the last bit of news about Luciana’s upcoming movie – independent thriller Urgency. Contrary to what we heard earlier this year, Regent Films obiously didn’t release the movie by the end of summer, and we still don’t have an official release date.

So imagine my surprise when I stumbled over the release schedule of Australia-based distributor Peacock Films. Apparently, Urgency will be released on DVD (Region 4) in November. Finally! The year-long wait is almost over! Let’s hope we’ll soon here about releases in Region 1 (North America) and Region 2 (Europe), too.

Peacock Films’ Urgency page includes a trailer (mostly consisting of scenes we’ve seen before) as well as the following preview of the DVD cover:

Obviously, we would have loved to see her face on the DVD jacket, but a DVD cover featuring Luciana is pretty cool nonetheless. Please note that she’s billed third, right after fellow genre veterans Brian Austin Green (“Terminator: Sarah Connor Chronicles”) and Jeffrey Combs (“Star Trek”, “The 4400″). Apart from short Passageway, this is Luciana’s best billing to date.

Here’s their official synopsis:

Tony West [Green] is a successful pharmaceutical executive living in LA with his loving wife [Luciana]. But after a day of tense negotiations with potential buyers, Tony comes home to find his wife has been kidnapped and that the kidnappers demand he bring $50,000 to them within 90 minutes or she’s dead.

Armed with only his wits and his cell phone, he has no choice but to comply. He soon realizes that this kidnapping is tied to information that he possesses, and people he knows are willing to kill him to get it. As he unravels more and more of the mystery, he realizes that the list of people he can trust is getting shorter and shorter. As time runs out, Tony must decide who is on his side, and who wants him dead.

Just a few more weeks, gentle readers!
