2015 has already proven to be a banner year for Magee. Arclight Films and Huace Media Group has acquired the rights to “LIGHTS OUT”, a thriller co-written by Magee and Jeff Byrd (Jasper Texas) and produced by Mike Gabrawy (Resident Evil, Reclaim). Currently the production is finalizing a deal with a "legendary" director to take the reign with casting to begin shortly afterward. Arclight Films and Huace Media (a China based company) also signed Magee and Byrd to a feature deal to develop films for the company in the 20M-60M range.
Magee currently has been writing on the CW's BLACK LIGHTNING and has several projects, both film and television, at various stages of development at production companies around town and should have more exciting news to share in the coming months.
