I\u2019m not sure he would want me to do this work, but Cliff Huxtable definitely would.\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">Added Vinnie Malhorta, executive vice president of nonfiction programming, Showtime Networks: \u201cKamau has bravely ventured into a very complicated and nuanced area of the Bill Cosby story, which has yet to be explored in this depth. It\u2019s an important and under-reported perspective on the legacy of one of history\u2019s most iconic African-American entertainers.\u201d<\/p>\n<div class=\"widget widget_cxense\" style=\"text-align: left;\">\n<section class=\"cxense-widget \/\/ \">\n<div id=\"cx-mid-article\" class=\"cxense-widget-div lrv-u-width-100p lrv-u-height-100p\" data-widget_id=\"8a00c858b5dc9bbc6730de1cd462cba7848c347c\"><\/div>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">Bell, Andrew Fried, Katie A.

Martin\u2019s newest project, \u201cNight of Cooters\u201d with Vincent D\u2019Onofrio set to star and direct. The film adaptation, based on Howard Waldrop\u2019s 1987 sci-fi novel, chronicles the time martians invaded Pachuco, Texas in the 1800\u2019s. \u201cThe idea of telling this particular story as a film with the tone and style of a graphic novel was clearly a good fit. The production \u2014 as the director and as one of the actors in the piece \u2014 was a lot of hard work, but less than it would have been if we had shot the film in the typical conventional way,\u201d D\u2019Onofrio said in a statement. L.C. Crowley, CEO of Trioscope, added, \u201cHere at Trioscope, we\u2019ve created a hybrid of animation and live-action drama that amplifies the best of both genres. Especially important within the structure of a short film, our unique approach immediately transports and immerses the viewer into a dramatic new world \u2014 one that gives nuance to the actors\u2019 performances and their characters. We\u2019re honored to partner with visionaries George R.R. Martin and Vincent D\u2019Onofrio to bring their wild imaginings to vivid life.\u201d \u201cNight of Cooters\u201d was animated by Trioscope Studios.
