Gregory in Award-Winning Film with Michael Cerveris, Connor Paolo, Kelly McGillis, and Danielle Harris
Stake Land, a vampire movie in which Gregory is featured, won the Audience Award for its category at the 2010 Toronto International Film Festival. Theatrical release is slated for April 22nd in the U.S. Starring Michael Cerveris, Connor Paolo (Gossip Girl), Kelly McGillis (Witness), and Danielle Harris, Stake Land is "an apocalyptic vampire Western," according to director Jim Mickle.
Danielle Harris, star of Rob Zombie's Halloween updates, plays Connor's love interest. She shot some behind-the-scenes footage of Stake Land.
Mickle created Stake Land with actor and co-writer Nick Damici, who also worked on Mulberry Street, a 2006 horror sensation.
Gregory, playing Paolo's father, works furiously to evacuate his family from their farm before a siege of vampires swallows up the countryside.
Paolo is well known for his ongoing role as Eric van der Woodsen on the CW's Gossip Girl. He got his start in Clint Eastwood's Mystic River.
Cerveris won a Tony award for his performance in the Broadway musical Assassins by Stephen Sondheim. A legend on the New York stage, Cerveris also has a recurring role on Fox Network's Fringe.
