Michigan-based, international actor DJ Perry has stepped into his new role as gruff Mountain Man Ben Lily. He was partially inspired by the actual mountain man Benjamin Lilly, a tracker/hunter known for protecting rancher's livestock from predators.

With the additional of another group of extremely talented actors from the Great Lake State, the cast is almost complete on "Wild Faith," a Michigan produced- midWestern 1800's tale.

Michigan provides backdrop for a new midWestern feature film and possibly a tv series.

Wild Faith is an inspirational western harkening back to the day of early Disney movies with gritty action wrapped around family values and important life lessons.

While it sounds like a law firm, it's actually the next group of exciting Michigan actors announced as part of Collective Development Inc.'s new mid-Western movie "Wild Faith" rolling cameras in October.

Collective Development Inc. (www.cdiproductions.com) is producing "Wild Faith" a midWestern pilot feature.

Collective Development Inc. is working to finalize their casting on "Wild Faith" their midWestern - written by DJ Perry and directed by Jesse Low.

Leading lady Melissa Anschutz (Bestseller, Ashes of Eden) is joining legendary actress Lana Wood (The Searchers, Grayeagle) on 'Wild Faith' shooting this autumn in Michigan.

The pilot feature for a proposed on-going TV series is slated to film this October.

Nearly 20 years ago, Michigan-based Collective Development Inc. (CDI) started as a literary development company for script properties.
