Based on a novel by Randy Arrington, the tale follows the rough-riding and hard-living pilots of an elite Navy attack squadron.

That's great news!

What is now considered the Official Website.

Rachael,

I am Randy Arrington, author of the "Kerosene Cowboys" series of novels. Great to hear that you are going to star as ‘Karen Marcus’ in "Kerosene Cowboys" the movie. You are a talented actress and will prove to be a fantastic Leading Lady in the film.

Hello randy.. without revealing much, how prominent is her character in your novel?

The character that Rachael will be playing ('Karen Marcus') is the incredibly beautiful, highly intelligent, "Leading Lady" in the storyline. She is torn between two handsome guys that she simply adores. Both men are dashing young Navy Fighter Pilots and best friends. But she met and fell in love with one of them before meeting the other. As is often the case in real life, adverse circumstances compel her to break up with the first man then later fall into the open and receptive arms of the second. I hope you enjoy old-fashioned romance superbly intertwined within a snarled web of fast-paced, aviation action. It’s going to be a tremendously exciting and highly entertaining roller-coaster ride of a movie.

If you can, get me a date with Rachael

I'm looking forward to the movie so much. If you believe the IMDB budget reports ($25M for this movie).. it's the largest production she has been a lead in since Josie & The Pussycats.

Hopefully a sign of things to come!

please keep us informed about the production of the movie if you can. would be really cool.
Guess you will meet Rachael anyway then?

Welcome to the board, Randy! Thank you so much for posting some info about your story. We're all looking forward to seeing the final project!

Please stick around and keep us informed.

The total budget for "Kerosene Cowboys" is much much larger than a mere $25 Million Bucks.

That's even better news. I didn't think you could get much done with airplane battle with that number. I hope the screenplay adaptation gives her a lot of screen time.

Keep us updated.
