IPOed at $8.00 on 01/16/08:
John Leguizamo and Freddy Rodriguez star in the family dramedy Humboldt Park. Three siblings come home to visit their parents in the Chicago neighborhood where they grew up. Alfredo De Villa directs with a script from Rick Najera and Ted Perkins.

Production is planned to start early next year with a fall 2008 release on the cards. A large ensemble cast is planned, but if Leguizamo and Rodriguez are the biggest names attached… well, it’s not a lot of star power. Overture Films, which is also distributing this weekend’s Mad Money, is releasing this film, so this is not the easy ’short the sure limited release’ play you think it might be.

Luis Guzman, Debra Messing, Alfred Molina, Jay Hernandez and some other actors without Starbonds have joined the cast. Filming begins February 13.

November release date – Thanksgiving weekend. Assuming Overture Films still has the money to distribute Humboldt Park, I am relatively upbeat about the movie’s box office prospects. Movies aimed at Hispanic-Americans are pretty thin on the ground, especially family dramedy. I’m not saying this is going to launch De Villa as the Hispanic Tyler Perry, but it is certainly cheap enough to take a chance on.
