Direct from Hollywood, with Ryan Seacrest.

Speaker 2 (00:03):
Getting a job as a production assistant, the most entry
level position possible on a studio film at only nineteen
years old, is pretty rare without serious connections, but teenager
Kane Parsons is skipping right to the front of the
line after getting hired by A twenty four to direct
the new horror movie The back Room. Theyking him the
youngest director in the studio's storied history. Cain, as you
might have guessed, is not your average nineteen year old.

(00:23):
He's the creative behind the super viral horror YouTube series
of the same name, which involves a twisted, endless maze
inside a barren office space. And while Cain might be
young and relatively in experienced, some seasoned actors believe in
his talent and vision enough to sign on to start
in the back Rooms, including Chewatel EDG four. Kine's developing
the story, which is being loosely guarded, and production is
expected to begin later this year.

Speaker 1 (00:44):
That's direct from Hollywood.
