Luke Macfarlane, Samantha Brown, Bryce Wynter & Colm Feore Join

EXCLUSIVE: Luke Macfarlane (Platonic), Samantha Brown (From), Bryce Wynter (We Were Liars) and Colm Feore (Landman) have joined the cast of Constantin Film’s YA romance Into The Deep Blue, which is now filming in Ontario, Canada.

Already aboard are Damian Hardung (Maxton Hall – The World Between Us), Sara Waisglass (Ginny & Georgia) and Erika Prevost (The Boys).

Directed by Jonathan Wright (Awakening the Zodiac), Into the Deep Blue is written by Jennifer Archer, based on her debut novel of the same name. Archer’s screenplay for the project earned her the 2022 Nicholl Fellowship from the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences. Marble Press published the book in September 2025.

North.five.six. is handling worldwide sales and will continue talking to buyers about the project at the upcoming Cannes market.

The film “follows best friends Nick and Fiona who find their relationship tested on a weekend road trip that forces them to choose between the safety of their friendship and the vulnerability of falling in love.”

Constantin Film is executive-producing and is a financier. Producers are Michael Baker (Awakening the Zodiac) for Bunk 11 Pictures, Jennifer Archer and Jonathan Wright. Executive producers are Oliver Berben and Robert Kulzer for Constantin Film and Michael Rothstein and Samuel Hall for north.five.six.

“Jennifer Archer has crafted a poignant and witty love story full of richly complicated yet relatable characters. With young adult themes of heartache and hope in an uncertain world, this is the right moment for this film. Into the Deep Blue is a wide, commercial feature with a wonderful ensemble cast and as we expand our reach to champion films in all stages of their life cycle, this is exactly the type of project that Constantin Film is looking to support,” said Constantin Film’s LA-based Robert Kulzer.

Macfarlane is repped by IAG and Entertainment 360; Brown is repped by The Arthur Agency; Feore is repped by Gersh and the Coronel Group; Prevost is repped by Amplified and OAZ.
