Kevin Sorbo Celebrates Upcoming Projects, Including REAGAN Biopic

By Movieguide® Contributor

Movieguide® Award winner Kevin Sorbo is celebrating all the projects he has ready to release in 2022, from movies to a book. 

First up is MIRACLE IN TEXAS, a movie about two con men who try to convince widows to invest in worthless oil wells during the Great Depression. 

​​“We are hoping and praying that it will come out in either October or November,” he told Digital Journal. “We are just looking for matching funds right now and we will get it out. It is too good of a movie. Everybody loves it, and we will get it out there.”

Sorbo is also looking forward to the release of REAGAN and a documentary, EATING WITH THE ENEMY, that tells the story of the Last Supper. He will also be narrating the documentary. 

Movieguide® previously reported on REAGAN, which stars Dennis Quaid:

I CAN ONLY IMAGINE actor Dennis Quaid will portray Ronald Reagan in the upcoming biopic, REAGAN. However, Quaid said he was initially confused why they asked him to play the 40th U.S. president.

“I didn’t understand why they were offering me Ronald Reagan because I just didn’t see it,” Quaid told Entertainment Weekly. “I admired him so much, and so I had a chill of fear go down my spine when I was offered it. That’s usually kind of a sign that maybe I should do it, because it’s out of my comfort zone.”

SOUL SURFER’s Sean McNamara will direct with NO SAFE SPACE’s Mark Joseph producing. Quaid also starred in the faith-filled and Movieguide® Award-Winning SOUL SURFER.

REAGAN is adapted from conservative author Paul Kengor’s book “The Crusader: Ronald Reagan and the Fall of Communism” and will span Reagan’s life “from his childhood to his time in the oval office.”

Producer Mark Joseph revealed that he talked to over 50 people who knew Reagan personally to add to the sprawling biographical drama. The movie will dive into Reagan’s childhood, his time in Hollywood, and his constant fight against communism in the entertainment industry and America.

“The challenge was me doing the research and finding out how to make it look right and not look cheesy,” director McNamara said.

“He already has the look, and then he just had that smile and that optimism, the kind of things you can’t make up for with hair and makeup,” Joseph said. “Honestly, if you had magically told me you could have any actor you want in Hollywood or Dennis Quaid, I literally would have chosen Dennis Quaid.”

“Then, I am leaving for Israel next month and I am shooting another documentary there,” he said. “I will be shooting a western later in the year and a car racing movie that I am shooting in my home state of Minnesota in July. I am staying busy.”

Sorbo is also busy promoting he and wife Sam Sorbo’s book, True Faith: Embracing Adversity to Live in God’s Light. The book’s popularity has led to speaking events for the couple.
