Listen Later

Frank Monteleone boasts a remarkable 17-year journey as a creative producer. His production career took root in Off-Broadway theater, and in 2005, he founded Full Armor Films, a dynamic development and production company based in New Orleans. Full Armor Films has provided production services to esteemed clients like ESPN, Geffen Records, and L'Oréal, along with post-production services for industry giants like Warner Bros. and Relativity Media. Frank has elevated Full Armor Films into a burgeoning development hub dedicated to film and television.

Presently, Frank is executive producing the films "Barron's Cove," starring Brittany Snow and Garrett Hedlund, "Fog of War," starring Mira Sorvino and John Cusack, and is in production for one of the only Louisiana-based independent films to obtain a SAG-AFTRA interim agreement during the strike titled, "Average Joe." Pre-production began July 2023, and principal photography begins October 2, 2023.

Frank is a family member and partial co-owner of the legendary luxury Hotel Monteleone in the French Quarter of New Orleans. Combining his love for both the hotel and filmmaking, Full Armor Films is currently in development for a project surrounding the hotel.

Frank's notable acting credits include the Warner Bros. feature film "Focus," where he shared the screen with Will Smith, the Marvel series "Cloak & Dagger," and the compelling legal drama "Bull" on CBS. His versatility is evident in a spectrum of roles, from the brooding drama of "The Secrets We Keep" to the intense "Lonewolf: Manhunt" on CBS, as well as a recurring role on OWN's highly acclaimed "Queen Sugar." In 2022, he also graced the screen alongside Terrence Howard and Malcolm McDowell in the period drama "The Walk."

His co-creation and production of the series "AVENUES," licensed by Lionsgate and currently available on Tubi, stands as a testament to his creative vision. Notable projects also include the award-winning documentary "Hotel Al," which aired on PBS, and the recently released feature film "American Reject," featuring talents such as Annaleigh Ashford, Billy Ray Cyrus, and his wife, Kathleen Elizabeth Monteleone.
