After Eric Dane died from ALS on Feb. 19, many fans are already missing the late actor and looking back on his past screen roles. Luckily, there is one final film role coming up for Dane, and it's a dark and twisted thriller called Family Secrets.
News of Dane's involvement in the project was announced at the end of 2023, with Deadline reporting on the slate of rising stars in the cast. At the time, the publication stated that the film was in production, and alongside Dane, Family Secrets stars Maia Mitchell, Thomas Doherty, Tyriq Withers, Hannah Dodd, and more.
While no photos or clips from the film have been shared publicly yet, the synopsis is already enough to excite fans. Withers stars as the protagonist, described as a "charming young man" who heads to a destination wedding where Dane's character's daughter, played by Mitchell, is getting married to her fiancé, played by Doherty. Withers' character aims to get revenge on Dane by seducing his daughter and charming his son-in-law-to-be.
According to Deadline, "As their relationship gets steamier, the truth gets closer to the surface, forcing the question of whether anyone is safe… and who is conning who?"
There haven't been any official updates about the project since then, but according to IMDb, the movie completed filming and is currently in post-production. Hopefully, a release date will be announced soon, and fans of Dane can get hyped up to see him in the tense thriller.
