Action! Action! Fairbanks Premiere May 19th

Regional Screenings Announced for Action! Action! Including Special Hometown Event in Fairbanks, Alaska on May 19th!

Following its successful world premiere in Las Vegas, the Alaskan-rooted heist comedy Action! Action! is rolling out to select theaters this May. The film will screen in Scottsdale, Arizona, from May 16-22 at Harkins Theatres 101, and will return to Las Vegas from May 16-18 at Brenden Theatres at the Palms Casino Resort. A highlight of the regional run is a special one-night-only screening in Fairbanks, Alaska, on May 19th at the Regal Goldstream Theater (1855 Airport Way). This hometown celebration will be attended by director Adam Kilbourn, who grew up watching movies in that very theater. Tickets for the Fairbanks screening are available now on Regal's website.

Action! Action! cast highlights include Shana Dahan (Storage Wars, Thrifters Anonymous), Mari Takahashi (Survivor, Smosh), Lundon Boyd (Dealer and Liars, Fires and Bears), David Valenzuela (Margaret the Brave), stage veterans Marcus Weiss (Cirque du Soleil, Blue Man Group) and London Mace (The Second City), alongside Hollywood pros David Barker and Andrew Comrie-Picard. Barker, a local pyrotechnician whose credits span Marvel, Jerry Bruckheimer, and Michael Bay productions, delivered the film's explosive effects, while Comrie-Picard, known for Atomic Blonde and Deadpool 2, orchestrated the thrilling car chases.

Fight directors Aaron and Ezechiel Ortega, along with the Arhat Orphan Brotherhood Stunt Team, unleashed dynamic kung fu sequences that give the fast-paced heist a razor-sharp physical edge. The brothers also take the spotlight, delivering on-screen performances as forceful and precise as their choreography.

Deepening the film's Alaskan roots, Action! Action! features appearances by Fairbanks Chief of Police Ron Dupee and longtime Alaska State Trooper Ed Halbert-both childhood friends of director Adam Kilbourn. Their involvement adds a layer of authenticity and hometown pride to the film, reinforcing its ties to the community that shaped its creator.

"Action! Action!" marks the final screen performance of the late Clarence Gilyard, the beloved actor and longtime UNLV film professor known for his iconic roles in Die Hard, Top Gun, and Walker, Texas Ranger. His presence in the film brings a poignant layer of legacy, community, and heartfelt tribute to Las Vegas's creative spirit.

Action! Action! Will continue its regional run before premiering on major streaming platforms later this summer.
