Next month Insight Film & Video and Shavick Entertainment head into production on Young Blades, described as a next generation of Musketeers set in 17th century Paris. Karen Cliche (Mutant X) stars as a woman posing as a man among the new group of swordsmen. The 22 hours will air on CHUM in Canada some time in Fall 2005 and PAX TV in the U.S. The per-episode budget is in the $1-million range.
The two prodcos are also working on another CHUM project, a $1.6-million MOW. Fatal Reunion, a thriller about marriage and fidelity, stars Calgary resident Erika Eleniak (Baywatch) and Canadian David Millbern (Zolar).
