The Plane follows commercial pilot Brodie Torrance (Butler) who, after a heroic job of successfully landing his storm-damaged aircraft in hostile territory, finds himself threated by militant pirates who are planning to take the plane and its passengers hostage. As the world’s authorities and media search for the disappeared aircraft, Brodie must rise to the occasion and keep his passengers safe long enough for help to arrive.

Pineda will play Bonnie, the professional and formidable head flight attendant in the film, which also stars Mike Colter and Kelly Gale.

Cameras are set to roll in Puerto Rico later this month.

The Plane will be directed by Jean-François Richet and written by Charles Cumming, JP Davis and Matt Cook, based on the book by Charles Cumming.

Lionsgate will release the film in North America, Latin America, the United Kingdom, and India.

Pineda will star in the Netflix series Cowboy Bebop as Faye Valentine. And she’s set to reprise her role in the next Jurassic World film, Jurassic World: Dominion, which comes out on June 10, 2022.

She also starred on the television series The Detour and the Samuel Goldwyn feature Modern Persuasion.

Rosanny Zayas is making (sound) waves…

Zayas joins a cast that includes Tony Award winner Ali Stroker, Karen Robinson, Michelle Monaghan, Matt Bomer and Daniel Sunjata.

Created and written by Vanessa Gazy, Echoes is a mystery thriller about identical twins Leni and Gina, both portrayed by Monaghan, who share a dangerous secret. Since they were children, Leni and Gina secretly have swapped lives, culminating in a double life as adults: They share two homes, two husbands and a child, but everything in their perfectly choreographed world is thrown into disarray when one of the sisters goes missing.

Zayas is Deputy Paula Martinez. She has enjoyed her first year working in the sleepy town of Mt. Echo where the crimes are as mild as the weather. But when her new friend Leni disappears, the true character of Mt. Echo reveals itself—and she finds herself caught in the middle.

Zayas currently stars on Season 2 of Showtime’s The L Word: Generation Q. She will next be seen in Sam Esmail’s limited series Angelyne for Peacock and UCP. She previously recurred on Orange Is The New Black, Modern Persuasion, The Code and Instinct.
