Freestyle Digital Media, the digital movie distribution division of Byron Allen’s Allen Media Group, proudly announces the acquisition of the stylish mystery-thriller WHEN THE RINGLIGHTS DIM, which will be available to rent/own on all North American digital HD internet, cable, and satellite platforms, as well as on DVD, starting on April 4, 2025.
WHEN THE RINGLIGHTS DIM will have its Los Angeles premiere at the Illusion Magic Theater in Santa Monica on Thursday April 3, 2025.
In WHEN THE RINGLIGHTS DIM, a famed Los Angeles-based content creator is kidnapped. There’s no evidence and no obvious suspects. Unable to involve the police, a group of influencers takes it upon themselves to track down their missing friend. They attempt to solve this twisted mystery the only way they know how: through social media sites, dating apps, and content house contacts.
Director Wil Glavin makes his feature directorial debut with WHEN THE RINGLIGHTS DIM, based on a screenplay which he also wrote. Produced by Wil Glavin, Valentina Mami, and Mike J. Kim, WHEN THE RINGLIGHTS DIM features a cast including Valentina Mami (‘Cassia’), Jadelyn Breier (‘Elle’), Anuschka van Lent (‘Zari’), Angelica Jensen (‘JJ’), Ian S. Peterson (‘Loon’), and Wil Glavin (‘Gavin’).
“When I sat down to write WHEN THE RINGLIGHTS DIM, I wanted to find that perfect amalgamation between light-hearted fun and pulse-pounding thrills,” said filmmaker Wil Glavin. “As someone who has always had a deep passion for 1940s and 1950s film noir, my goal was to write a mystery with a classic flair and combine it with the inimitable content creators that help capture the 2020s cultural zeitgeist.”
Freestyle Digital Media negotiated the deal to acquire WHEN THE RINGLIGHTS DIM directly with Glavin Entertainment.
