Addison Trail alumnus’ children’s book ‘Regulus’ set to make big screen debut

Telling stories through writing has been a passion for Addison Trail alumnus Aaron Ozee (class of 2014) since he was 5 years old. He has developed that passion into a career, as his two children’s books – “My Darling Child Shiloh” and “Regulus” – were published in 2016 and 2017, respectively.

Ozee’s “Regulus” (which tells the story of three tiny mice, who represent innocence and youth, as they cross paths with the titular character, Regulus, who represents the more troubling moments in life) continues to reach audiences throughout the world. So far, Ozee has partnered with groups to launch a printed copy of “Regulus” into space and to bring the book to Mount Everest, the Galápagos Islands and Chernobyl.

And now “Regulus” is set to take the big screen! Ozee has sold the production rights from his notable creation to a stop-motion animation studio that will adapt “Regulus” into an unorthodox theatrical feature. Production is scheduled to be completed at the end of February, 2020, and the official release month of “Regulus” has been disclosed as July 2020. The premiere of “Regulus” also will take place in July 2020 and will be privately hosted in Chicago for national media, crew members, family and friends to see the first screening. The film will then be launched on streaming services and video-on-demand services to rent or buy (further details will be shared soon). To read the full press release, go to www.AaronOzee.com.
