City of Dreams In Theaters Worldwide Today

After years of development and hard work, today City of Dreams, written and directed by Mohit Ramchandani, makes its way into theaters worldwide.

Mogul Productions can’t help but feel like a proud parent given that we were an early investor in the film at a point when it was going by its working title, Dreamer, and had yet to become more than just an ambitious vision and script. 

With a plot inspired by a real world problem, City of Dreams uses the power of film to tell the story of a young boy who is tricked into coming to the U.S. to pursue his dream of becoming a soccer star, only to find himself trafficked and forced to work in a Los Angeles sweatshop.

Child labor trafficking is a serious issue that impacts millions of children annually across the globe. City of Dreams helps to shine a light on the issue via this powerful thriller featuring a career defining performance from up and coming actor, Ari Lopez. 

Additionally, the team involved with City of Dreams has partnered with A21, which is a charity focused on fighting human trafficking. More details on that partnership can be found on the City of Dreams Resources page or on A21’s website.

With that said, grab your tickets and check out City of Dreams, in theaters now. 

Also make sure to take a photo of your ticket stub and join the Mogul Discord or Telegram in order to earn a free claim for a variant of the No Child In Chains collectible featuring artwork by Paul Gerben.

Those who purchase a No Child In Chains collectible also unlock a free claim for unique scene art from City of Dreams. Each Dreamer collectible has different rarities that will allow owners to accumulate Mogul Empire points as well.

Mogul Expands Into Music with Rello Ranzano’s Can’t Escape The Allure

Bahamian rapper, Rello Ranzano, has never been afraid to pursue new things in order to push himself to continue to evolve and improve as an artist.

It’s the main reason Rello is choosing to collaborate with Mogul Productions for his upcoming album, Can’t Escape The Allure.

Not only will this be the first music project released by Mogul Productions, in partnership with Wave Runnah Records, it will also be the first album Ranzano will release on the blockchain by allowing early supporters to purchase special edition versions of Can’t Escape The Allure as music digital collectibles.

Releasing in September 2024, Can’t Escape The Allure encompasses the irresistible pull of life’s passions and dreams in various realms. In life

and love, it signifies the deep attraction and emotional grip of ambitions, experiences, and relationships that captivate us.

Musically, it highlights the profound connection and emotional resonance that can inspire and move people.

“What Can’t Escape The Allure means to me is being irresistibly drawn to something despite any attempts to avoid it,” Ranzano explained. “Certain things or experiences have a powerful and captivating pull that is difficult, if not impossible, to resist.

It implies a sense of inevitability and attraction that overcomes any efforts to steer clear.”

Produced by Zoltan Johnson and Anthony Forbes at OEU Studios, Can’t Escape The Allure will feature 16 tracks (with 18 on the deluxe edition). The songs draw inspiration and subject matter from Ranzano’s own life, making the album a deeply personal piece of creative expression.

“Every song on this project is based on my real life experiences, real moments, and real emotions,” Ranzano notes. “It was all

inspired by a deep self love, a real love for the divine feminine, the luxurious things in life, and my unquenching desire to be great.”

Ranzano added, “In this case for me it’s pertaining to love. A love for wanting the best for myself and the people I love and care about. Love is the driving force that brought me to this point. The need to overcome poverty, vices, stereotypes, and more. An undeniable lust to experience life in the best way, to find and experience real love and everything that comes with

it, without fear.”

Can’t Escape The Allure also includes features from artists such as Ley, Dru242, and Philly. Early supporters of the Mogul x Can’t Escape The Allure campaign will unlock not just the album but some unique rewards, including a chance to win tickets to the August 31st Lil Durk concert in Nassau, Bahamas that Ranzano is providing support for as the opening act.

Make sure to keep an eye on all things Mogul and Rello Ranzano for more campaign details and key dates dropping soon.

City of Dreams Film3 Campaign Gets Surprise Addition

With the No Child In Chains NFT Mint going live on the Mogul Film3 Dashboard on August 7th, we decided to reward early participants for their support of a great film and even better cause.

Since funds raised from the mint will be going towards partner charities to raise awareness around child labor trafficking, while also helping fund opportunities for trafficking victims to see City of Dreams, we feel it’s only right to hook up our wonderful Mogul community members for their good deeds.

As a result, we will be releasing a free NFT claim called the Dreamer collection. Featuring one-of-a-kind scene art from City of Dreams, the Dreamer collection will give No Child In Chains NFT holders exclusive digital collectibles tied to a film that is an early favorite to win multiple awards.

Additionally, the Dreamer collection will introduce Mogul’s three rarity tiers via traits tied to the different scenes. These traits are Producer, Visionary, and Mogul, with Mogul being the most exclusive rarity. 

These rarities are crucial towards laying the foundation for Mogul’s long term plan to connect all our film campaigns while also providing not just great rewards for our most active supporters, but also creating clear secondary market value long after the film campaigns have wrapped up.

In coming months we will offer more details about the Mogul Empire leaderboard and ranking system, but for now just know that the City of Dreams campaign NFTs will be weighted heavier in terms of earnable points due to it being the first campaign in our film road map.

So make sure you don’t miss out on the No Child In Chains mint on August 7th, and definitely don’t miss out on going to see City of Dreams, in theaters worldwide on August 30th.

For early access, sign up for the City of Dreams Campaign Whitelist on Zealy:

A Killer In The House Partners with Mogul Productions Ahead of Amazon Prime Release

A Killer In The House, a deeply creepy thriller centered around a violent stalker, will be joining Mogul Productions to build out a campaign in support of the film’s upcoming release on Amazon Prime and other streaming platforms.

Phillip Andre Botello delivers a performance sure to leave audiences disturbed and uneasy, as his fixation on Ava (played by Katherine Gibson) is often the primary reason for most of her dates ghosting her.

Written and directed by Jared Cohn, A Killer In The House, provides an intimate look into a deranged mind, following a character whose impulses and obsessions lead the film into truly dark places.

Set to release on Amazon Prime in Late Summer/Early Fall 2024, A Killer In The House will be complemented by a Mogul curated campaign that will give fans a more immersive way to participate in the film and its potential success.

Make sure to sign up for the Mogul Mailing List at www.MogulProductions.com to never miss out on all things Film3.

Paul Gerben City of Dreams Poster NFT

For art fans (or anyone capable of executing a Google search) it’s hard not to be elated over the upcoming opportunity to collect a piece of art by legendary fine artist, Paul Gerben.

 

Known for his medium-bending approach to creating art, Gerben has worked with many of the world’s most iconic figures, some of whom are also among his most famous collectors–Barack Obama and Leonardo DiCaprio to name a few.

 

From his pop art to photojournalism, Gerben’s artistic range is as impressive as the final products. Given City of Dreams’ focus on child slavery and the trafficking rings that make it possible, Gerben’s poster art takes a straightforward approach by recreating the film’s poster using the photos of missing children.

 

Those looking to collect limited edition NFTs of Gerben’s City of Dreams poster only have to do three simple things:

 

  • Attend a screening of City of Dreams between August 30th and September 30th and save your ticket stub/receipt.
  • Join the Mogul Telegram chat.
  • Share a photo of your City of Dreams ticket stub/receipt in the Mogul Telegram chat.

 

To learn more about Paul Gerben, this profile and interview by Elevated Magazines is an excellent read.

Eyeing A Late 2024 Release Harvester of Eyes Brings Hellacious Terror to Mogul Productions

From the depths of Hell to the Earthly realm, demons who’ve found a new way of collecting souls will terrorize humanity in Harvester of Eyes, an upcoming horror film from Charach and Mogul Productions.

Directed by Mark Polonia, Harvester of Eyes begins shooting in Fall 2024 and will bring to screen a terrifyingly gruesome tale about demonic entities stealing eyes in order to gain access to the souls of their victims.

Given the cult popularity of the horror genre, Mogul Productions along with Executive Producer, Randy Charach, and Producer, David Sterling, cannot wait to make willing audiences squirm as Hellspawn pluck eyes and steal souls.

From Randy Charach of CHARACH PRODUCTIONS:

“Prepare yourselves for a spine-chilling journey into darkness with Harvester of Eyes. As the executive producer, I’m beyond excited to unveil this terrifying tale that will keep you on the edge of your seat. Get ready for a rollercoaster of fear and suspense, as Harvester of Eyes promises to haunt your dreams long after the credits roll. Don’t blink – you won’t want to miss this!”

Audiences will have to wait until the latter part of 2024 to see if humanity can survive the evil forces coming for their eyes, but guaranteed it will be hard to look away once Harvester of Eyes comes to screens worldwide.

Texas Nightmare Showcases Fragility of the Mind Through Writer’s Block and a Murderous Cult

When a case of writer’s block sends an author to a remote cabin in the Texas hill country, she quickly learns that there are worse things than being uninspired.

 

Texas Nightmare, a horror film from Charach Productions and Michael Merino, plays with many of the elements that have served the genre well: isolation, remote cabins, and of course, a murderous cult.

 

As our author confines herself to a cabin to force herself to finish her novel, her plan to find creation through solitude is undone by the realization she is not alone. Meeting a deadline takes on new meaning for her as her sole focus becomes that of survival instead of turning out pages.

 

The cast features horror veterans Felissa Rose and Sadie Katz (who stars in another upcoming Randy Charach and Mogul film, Clutch), as well as an exciting cast of characters. 

With production set to wrap for Texas Nightmare around the end of summer 2024, Mogul Productions in partnership with MCM Productions and Charach Productions is eyeing a possible late 2025 release. As a result, the Mogul community can expect unique reward and support opportunities to go live really soon. From a role in the film, to collecting props to producer credits, there will be a variety of ways to support the release of Texas Nightmare.
