Belltower Entertainment (OTCBB: BTOW) announced today that company CEO Nina Yang was interviewed by The Wall Street Reporter. The interview is available to listen to by visiting this link: http://www.wallstreetreporter.com/2010/04/belltower-entertainment-corp-otc-btow-ceo-interview/.

Belltower is currently in Pre-Production on its feature film entitled “Little Treasure” starring Academy Award winner Forest Whitaker (Last King of Scotland) with filming to begin in early May on location in China.

The company has engaged Los Angeles based Film Bridge International to represent “Little Treasure” for its foreign territory distribution sales.

Foreign sales have been conservatively estimated at USD$12 million and will be actively engaged at The Cannes Film Festival beginning May 12th and running for 10 days through the 23rd of May. Belltower Chairman Donald K. Bell will be in attendance with Film Bridge at the festival to consummate sales and finalize the deals. WME is in place to represent the project for a Domestic Distribution deal.

Little Treasure, which will be filmed on location in China, is an inspiring story about a bi-racial American couple who return to the wife's homeland of China to rekindle their love and reignite their marriage, only to encounter prejudices, humor, cultural differences, and ultimately self-discovery...and along the way meeting a Shanghai street kid who changes their lives. The screenplay was penned by writer Josh Goldstein (Disney's Jungle Cruise, "Fresh Prince of Bel Air," "Jamie Foxx Show"). Michael D. Olmos (Splinter) is attached to direct alongside Hollywood cinematographer Reynaldo Villalobos (Risky Business, A Bronx Tale, Urban Cowboy). Whitaker is repped at William Morris Endeavour (WME).

Belltower has two more feature films, which are currently in various stages of development and pre-production, and are on the company's production slate for 2010:

Dance the Green is written by Academy Award winner Barry Morrow (Rainman) and starring Giovanni Ribisi (Avatar, Gone in 60 Seconds, Boiler Room) with a budget of US$10 million. It's set to start production late summer on location in Pittsburgh and Florida. Belltower's CEO Nina Yang will produce with Claire Kupchak and Barry Morrow. The company is currently in the final stages of negotiations with a major Hollywood actor to co-star. Giovanni Ribisi is repped by CAA and Management 360.

The Times' bestselling novel, "Smokescreen," about the true life adventure of Allen Long, a documentary film maker who began smuggling pot out of Colombia in the '70s to finance his movie, has been adapted by Paul Cuschieri and will commence pre-production later this year.

Belltower will retain copyright ownership in all three films slated for production this year with majority control over production, financing and distribution.
