Some big news coming out of the Chattanooga Film Festival. During a surprise announcement, director Jeremy Gardner revealed a new film, entitled Something Else. He is best known for his film subtle zombie film The Battery, in which he also wrote and starred in.

Details are still quite sparse on Something Else. Gardner did state it will be a ‘monster movie’. Producer David Lawson (The Endless) is working with Gardner on this project. In regards to working with Lawson, Gardner stated:

But it pays off when a producer like David Lawson shows up and says ‘I have an actual budget for you to make your movie’.

This isn’t the first time the two have worked together. Lawson is a producer for the film Spring in which Gardner portrayed the part of Tommy. Creators of Spring, Justin Benson and Aaron Moorhead, will also produce Something Else, under their label Rustic Films. Benson wrote Spring as well as co-directed the film along with Moorhead. Gardner is also collaborating with Christian Stella, who has worked with him on previous two films.

Something Else is the third film Gardner will direct. Fan favorite The Battery was his first, which followed two baseball players as they traverse the rural back roads of a post-plague New England teeming with the un-dead. Gardner is one of the two main characters in the film, Ben, while Stella served as director of photography. Both are co-directors of Tex Montana Will Survive! Gardner also appears as Tex Montana. It isn’t out of the possible that Gardner might play a role in this new film. He also is a cop in last year’s Psychopaths and has 11 acting credits to his name, according to IMDb.
