KING’S HIGHWAY is a new romantic comedy from
RYAN JOHNSON PRODUCTIONS and RIVERCOAST FILMS DISTRIBUTION.

GEOFF STULTS (October Road, 7th Heaven, The Break Up) stars as Todd King, a young man whose life isn’t going quite the way he hoped it would. He hates his job, his girlfriend, and who he’s become. Just when things couldn’t get worse, Todd learns that his one true love, Mary (LORI HEURING, 8MM 2, The In Crowd, Mulholland Dr.), is getting married in two days. With little money, the help of a crazed barfly (JOHN DiRESTA, Miss Congeniality), and the boot mobile, Todd sets off on a journey that takes him across California, through his past and into his heart as he travels down El Camino Real. . . the King’s Highway.

The film also stars RYAN ALOSIO (The Hi-Line ), HOLLY FIELDS (Wishmaster 2 ) and CHARLIE FINN (Super Troopers, The Dukes of Hazzard ) . Featuring the music of MOTHER SUPERIOR, ANDREW BIRD, ELLIS PAUL and EDIE CAREY.

KING’S HIGHWAY is Executive Produced by TONY GARDNER; Edited & Photographed by VILLAMOR M. CRUZ; Produced by
RYAN JOHNSON; and Written & Directed by SCOTT MALCHUS.

Soundtrack

When putting together the music for King's Highway, we were fortunate enough to have some excellent artists like Mother Superior and Andrew Bird lend us their songs for key scenes in the movie. Additionally, we went through some 500 submissions to choose the rest of the material that plays throughout the movie. Among the many great artists we discovered were Teddy Goldstein, Ronald Jean, Mostly John, and Edie Carey. When possible, a link has been provided for the artists. Please take the time to check out their websites, and if you enjoyed what you heard, please buy their cd's. Thanks!
