Red House Streaming and Jersey Shore Entertainment Expand Alliance with Psychological Thriller “The Last Confession”
Emmy-Nominated Director Anna Simone Scott attached; cast includes Anthony Caso, Bruno Iannone, and Sydney Justin
Red House Streaming, a CP Communications company, is expanding its production alliance with Jersey Shore Entertainment for the upcoming psychological thriller The Last Confession, set for principal photography in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil and St. Petersburg, Florida.
The film centers on an award-winning New York investigative journalist who travels to Rio de Janeiro after losing her husband and daughter in a tragic car accident and becomes entangled in a series of murders connected to private confessions made to Catholic priests shortly before each victim’s death. Blending international intrigue, moral complexity, and psychological suspense, The Last Confession is positioned as a character-driven thriller with the scope and tension of a global crime drama.
The production builds on the ongoing creative momentum between Jersey Shore Entertainment and Red House Streaming, whose strategic alliance has expanded rapidly across multiple project; including Blue Hotel, currently being positioned as both a feature film and backdoor television pilot in a first-look output deal with Breaking Glass Pictures who presented the project for presales at Cannes this year.
“Every project we take on has to have something to say — a story that pulls you in and doesn’t let go. The Last Confession is exactly that. We’re building a production infrastructure with Red House Streaming that lets us move fast on the right material, and this is absolutely the right material.” — Mario Domina, CEO, Jersey Shore Entertainment
Production & Locations
Key exterior sequences will be filmed on location in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, with additional production based in St. Petersburg, Florida. Red House Streaming’s studio facilities will support interior production, with crew also deployed for exterior beach sequences.
“Having studio infrastructure in St. Petersburg alongside the ability to support international location production gives our partners a genuine competitive advantage — but what makes this alliance truly different is that the distribution pipeline is already built. The Last Confession has a home on RHStv across connected TV platforms from day one, which means we’re not just producing the film, we’re delivering it directly to a national audience.” — Kurt Heitmann, CEO, CP Communications, Red House Streaming, and RHStv
Cast & Crew
The Last Confession is directed by Anna Simone Scott, Emmy-nominated for Take My Heart and whose directorial debut The Aerial Girl earned six awards, four nominations, and screened at forty film festivals before airing on PBS. Ramsey K. Heitmann serves as assistant director. A producer and actor with credits including The Last Confession, Maverick (2023), The Bayou, and Hidden Valley, Heitmann brings on-set production experience across both film and television.
The cast features:
• Anthony Caso as Detective Anthony Costa
• Bruno Iannone as Donnie “The Lion” Di Leo
• Sydney Justin as Victor Green
