Reader’s Digest, Fox Home Entertainment and Peace Arch Entertainment Combine to Produce and Release ‘Ace of Hearts’


First Release Under 'Reader’s Digest Family Films’ Banner Based on Popular ‘Reader’s Digest’ Story with Dean Cain to Star; Principle Filming Begins This Week


LOS ANGELES, Calif.  May 30, 2007 – Reader’s Digest Association, Twentieth Century Fox Home Entertainment LLC and Peace Arch® Entertainment are joining forces to produce and distribute “Ace of Hearts,” a full-length motion picture based on a true story published by Reader’s Digest in 2002 about a law-enforcement officer and his crime-fighting dog.  The movie, the first released under the new brand, Reader’s Digest Family Films, is scheduled to begin production this week and stars Dean Cain (“Out of Time,” TV’s “Lois and Clark,” “Best Men”) as the lead actor.  Plans call for the film to be released in early 2008.


Peace Arch Entertainment (AMEX: PAE), a leading worldwide film producer and distributor, will produce the film in association with Bogner Entertainment Inc., headed by producer Jonathan Bogner.  Peace Arch also will distribute the film internationally.  Twentieth Century Fox Home Entertainment  LLC (TCFHE), a division of News Corporation’s Twentieth Century Fox Film Corporation, will handle U.S. marketing and distribution.


Reader’s Digest Association will provide magazine, direct marketing and online promotion.  Reader’s Digest is the country’s largest magazine, reaching nearly 40 million people, and is part of a network of 50 editions worldwide.  The company also publishes 26 other magazine titles, sells millions of books each year and operates websites around the world.

The “Ace of Hearts” screenplay, written by Frederick Ayeroff and directed by David Mackay, follows the adventures of law enforcement officer Glen MacKenzie (Dean Cain), his 10-year-old daughter and Ace, his canine corps German Shepard, as they match wits with a wily criminal bent on revenge against the family and Ace.


Cain, 40, has appeared in more than 70 films and television episodes in a career that has spanned 23 years.  After flirting with a possible NFL pro-football career, he became a familiar TV face on “Beverly Hills, 90210” in 1990 before getting his first big break as Clark Kent / Superman in the series, “Lois & Clark: The New Adventures of Superman” with Terri Hatcher in 1993.
