The cast for the upcoming indie drama "Hal", from "Ozark" co-creator Mark Williams, has been revealed. The cast now includes Alexander Ludwig, Emma Roberts, Matthew Goode ("Department Q"), Kate Walsh ("Grey's Anatomy"), Taylor John Smith ("Where the Crawdads Sing"), Garret Dillahunt ("No Country for Old Men"), Robert Patrick ("Terminator 2: Judgment Day"), Colm Meaney ("Star Trek: The Next Generation"), Justin Bartha ("The Hangover"), Nicolette Sheridan ("Desperate Housewives"), Maurice Compte ("Narcos"), Kevin Chapman ("Person of Interest"), Ian Bohen ("Yellowstone"), Chris Diamantopoulos ("Silicon Valley"), Jason Kennedy ("E! News"), Robert Treveiler ("The Accountant"), Ernie Hudson, Leslie Bibb, Aidan Quinn and Jeffrey Donovan.
The film is directed by Williams from a script by Mark Edwin Robinson ("I Will Follow You Into the Dark", "Breaking Dawn"), and is inspired by the true story behind the founding of humanitarian organization Convoy of Hope. The story follows Hal Donaldson (Ludwig), a journalist shaped by early hardship who believes his voice is his path forward. When he meets Doree (Roberts), a gifted musician, their relationship becomes the foundation that steadies him as his career takes him to places marked by deep suffering.
As Hal witnesses crisis and inequality firsthand, the line between observing and acting begins to blur. Confronted with the limits of telling stories alone, he is drawn toward a calling that requires more than words — setting in motion the events that lead to the creation of Convoy of Hope. Goode will reportedly play the father of Ludwig's Hal. Other character details are being kept under wraps. The movie was shot in Atlanta and Colombia.
Since its founding in 1994, Convoy of Hope has delivered hundreds of millions of meals and provided clean water to millions of people. Operating in dozens of countries, they’re recognized for their large-scale disaster relief operations, long-term community development programs, and ability to mobilize public-private partnerships to reach people others cannot.
"Hal" is produced by Zero Gravity Management.
