The movie involves a multimillionaire superhero who strikes against evil forces in anonymity wearing a rabbit mask, according to a provided synopsis. He is driven by the desire to avenge his sister who committed suicide after suffering a violent act, images of which wound up on the internet.

Iervolino, whose production credits include Michael Mann’s ‘Ferrari’, Johnny Depp-starrer ‘Waiting for the Barbarians’ and ‘Lamborghini: The Man Behind the Legend’, is producing the film via his TaTaTu shingle, as per Variety.
