Earlier this week, Peter Facinelli announced his planned involvement in a film entitled The Delivery, which he stated he would both star in and produce (with Dave Stewart). Other than that statement, information on the film was rather limited in nature - until now.

Facinelli has revealed exclusive new details on the project, including the fact that the film is but one of a trilogy of planned films.

The film's plot, according to Facinelli, is as follows:

Basically, it’s about an angel and a demon who are brothers, and they come together to try to save humanity because it’s the last hour on Earth. All the other angels and demons have come together to end humanity, so they want to release the Antichrist who’s trapped inside this twelve year old girl, so we kidnap – my brother and I – this twelve year old girl and are trying to release the Antichrist in a positive light so that humanity can survive. So, it’s a huge action road trip that ensues where we’re being chased by every angel and demon. And it’s not heavy; it’s not religious … It’s more along the lines of an Indiana Jones or a Die Hard, where it’s got comedy to it, so it’s like an action/comedy.

Facinelli's character will be "Brother U," "who's an angel." His brother, the demon of the pair, will be called "Brother M." Another important character in the film will be the twelve year old girl, who "at first sight, looks like she has a kind of palsy and she never speaks. And she shakes all the time because it’s the Antichrist who’s trapped inside of her and there are these little demons that are holding her down with tiny ropes, so she’s been in this hospital for twelve years and no one knows what’s wrong with her, but basically she has the Antichrist inside of her so now’s the time to release [it], and we have the girl. We’re trying to save the little girl and save humanity at the same time."

The project, he says, is in the "early stages. We just had a finished script, and I brought the project to Dave Stewart. He's a friend of mine, and he loved it."

When Facinelli announced the film last week, he issued two stills from the pitch trailer that he and Stewart recently completed.

About that, Facinelli says "we shot a 3-D pitch trailer, so we're hoping to do [the film] in 3-D. We shot some footage ... we basically put together a little scene from the movie ... and now we're just gearing up to go out to studios with it and try to get studio backing and make the picture. So, we don't have a director set, or a studio attached."

The screenwriter for the film is Robert Gunnerson, who both wrote and directed 2006's Arc in which Facinelli portrayed "Paris." The only attached actor, at this time, is Peter Facinelli, and Dave Stewart will serve as a co-producer on the project "and will probably do the music for it, too."

In the meantime, Facinelli states that a website for the film will be developed in the near future, though still in the early stages of development, and he will continue to Twitter updates about the project (and the forthcoming website) as they come. As such, fans should follow Facinelli on his Twitter page here.

Looks to be quite an interesting film, don't you think?
