If you’ve been chasing a project that actually means something — not just another throwaway gig — Keep Coming Back might be the one to watch. The feature film is gearing up to shoot in Salt Lake City from late October through November 2025, and it’s got a team of serious industry players behind it. For this film, director and writer Mark Rosman, well known for A Cinderella Story, returns at the helm. Since Neely Eisenstein is in charge of casting, you must keep an eye on her if you want to submit your name.
Instead of being a loud, effects-driven movie, this is a more quiet, personal one. This book examines family, second chances, and the kind of emotional disaster that doesn’t work out. This is the type of endeavor that may truly stick with people if you can convey honesty to a situation rather than faking it to death.
About the Project
Keep Coming Back follows Miles Aaronson, a TV director from Los Angeles who’s juggling success at work but failing at home. Zoe, his teenage daughter, has been going off the rails lately — drugs, bad decisions, the whole deal. Miles has been too wrapped up in his TV work to really deal with it, but when things finally blow up, she’s shipped off to a rehab program in Utah. He ends up following her there, mostly because he doesn’t know what else to do.
Once they get there, Miles meets Gillian, this counselor who doesn’t take any of his usual Hollywood charm. She calls him out, pushes him in ways he’s not ready for. The story isn’t shiny or overly dramatic — it’s messy, emotional, and way too real at times. It’s about people trying, failing, and trying again.
They’re filming in and around Salt Lake City, which is good news if you’re a local actor. There’ll be openings for background and supporting roles, and projects like this often love bringing in fresh, local talent. Keep tabs on casting updates if you want a shot at this one.
Cast
The following is what is currently known about the main characters:
- Miles Aaronson, a 40-year-old TV director who is skilled at handling everything but his personal life and has a strong work ethic.
- Zoe (late teens): bright, rebellious, and more wounded than she acknowledges.
- Gillian, a 50-year-old rehab counsellor, uses unusual techniques that are based on genuine empathy.
There is much opportunity for supporting and background roles, such as those of patients, employees, locals, and other characters that give a narrative like this a lived-in sense, even if the leads are already established.

Recent News
Pre-production is under underway, and filming was supposed to start in late October 2025. It’s clear that this isn’t just a little local effort with producers like Amy Redford and Geralyn Dreyfous involved, and Rosman’s history of compelling narrative gives Keep Coming Back a great deal of potential. There’s real indie credibility behind it.
This could easily become a festival contender, which means even smaller roles might open new doors for actors trying to build credits in drama or feature films. Keep an eye on casting boards and production updates as the start date approaches.

Most importantly, follow official updates through Project Casting. That’s where legitimate casting info will drop first — not on random forums or sketchy social posts.
It’s a story about second chances, and who knows — Keep Coming Back might just be yours.
