I did a lengthy retrospective interview with William Fichtner back in 2015 as part of a local Buffalo, New York publication’s “film issue” due to his being raised in the suburb of Cheektowaga and forever holding a special place in his heart for the city wherever he goes. When talking about the area’s rejuvenation and increased appeal for the film industry, he relayed his dream of one day soon shooting a script he finished co-writing with Cain DeVore in his hometown’s backyard of Upstate New York. His vision for this film was to have the “crystal clear Finger Lakes in the background” rather than the muddy rivers of a Louisiana tax break. He hoped to champion his roots on-screen and deliver its underrated, natural beauty to the world.
The financing came together for that dream to become a reality two years later as Cold Brook‘s Onondaga County-set...

We’ve got a cool new trailer for you to check out for a film called Cold Brook, directed by William Fichtner in his directorial debut. He also co-wrote the film alongside Cain DeVore. Fichtner stars in the film alongside Kim Coates and Harold Perrineau.
The story in this movie feels so different and original. It’s been making the rounds at the film festivals, with awards and great reviews. I was truly captivated by this trailer. I was surprised at every turn and enjoyed seeing the main characters in such warm roles, different from their typical characters. I can’t wait to see the film. Here’s the synopsis:
Cold Brook is the story of two ordinary guys in a small town who embark on an extraordinary adventure. It's a story about coming home; something everyone, everywhere has an innate desire to do.
Check out the trailer below, and see Cold Brook in theaters,...
