“My Plans For 2026” (EXCLUSIVE) Interview with Kel Owens

What are your expectations for 2026?


Well my goal is to make two movies in 2026. Also I’m a Sag-Aftra actor, I have one acting gig lined up for 2026 outside of my own two movies, I’m going to work to get a few more.

What projects are you currently working on?


I just finished writing a script, a story of a man in a tough situation. The fine line between a good samaritan or vigilante. It’s in pre-production-(props, set designs, costumes, securing locations etc.) Probably start casting auditions in late January. I would like to start shooting in late March, early April.

What would you ask event organizers in the film industry to do in order to support the creativity of highly talented independent artists like yourself?


Providing more crucial platforms – creative workshops, panels to connect with the industry professionals. Topics such as screenwriting, financing, and legal matters. Exposure and networking which can lead to meeting producers, distributors, and agents. Gain media attention through screenings and Q & A’s. A wide range of voices by bringing new talent to the attention of the industry.

What vision or desire currently guides your artistic choices?


It starts with the story, would I like to see this movie or show. My visions and desires usually start with the telling of different, interesting kinds of stories. That hopefully resonate with people and they think about it later. I truly enjoy working on a project with the crew and cast helping make the story come alive on screen.
