Below is the letter I sent to THE CHOICE cast and crew.
Thank you to all who supported this venture... There's always a way... Just maybe not right away.

Cast & Crew
I have done some soul searching to clear up my feelings about the film project and have come to the conclusion that it should end. My Mother's passing was difficult and some of the things she communicated before her passing about family and what I was supposed to do and had done was unpleasant. I was hurt, but there were other factors.
The project had creative differences. I was told that my shooting style was inappropriate for the project and it would have to change amongst other things. This would mean a longer shoot schedule with days being only on weekends; literally 3 to potentially 4 more months of shooting. I am not used to this and asked other directors if they would take over, but none responded.
More importantly my HEART and HEAD are not into this project anymore and I told the producers that if they wanted to find a new director that they could.
Also, the project had financial difficulties. The investor who was supposed to finance the project in the second quarter panicked when Trump put in tariffs and they took major losses. They informed me that it would take more time to get funds which is/was more time that we would have to wait and probably not receive all that we need.
So, the film project has been cancelled. Please claim your IMDb pages before I am required to take it down.
EVERYONE who worked on the days of MONDAY MARCH 10 & SATURDAY MARCH 15 will get paid although it may take a month or so. Some of you, already got paid for those days and I will be sending out the next payments after contracts expire on MAY 23.
Thank you for your patience and understanding. Everything happens for a reason, but why should we suffer more than necessary for something that the Universe didn't want to manifest... Just yet...
