IN THE NEWS

Green Chi Group Joins Production Team Cyberkill Movie

 

CYBERKILL is about an AI assassin that stops at nothing to get what it wants. It’s a story of abandonment and revenge.Thinking he deleted all of his artificial intelligent agents he created at MIT, Travis Cole begins a new life. What he is unaware of is…he forgot one. The movie in the making is a story of revenge through cyberspace.
 
“Inclusion and diversity will be an important part of the movie”, says producer Douglas Collins, who has worked with Green Chi Group CEO Henk Abbink on many different projects, “and the one person and company that came to mind, as global partner and for advice on the portrayal of Diversity, Equity and Inclusion (DE & I) were Green Chi Group and Henk, who has been at the forefront of DE & I for many years. As Henk also has an extensive background in licensing, working with licensed product manufacturers and knows his way around the sportstech and gaming ecosystem, the Cyberkill team convinced him to get on board.
 
Henk Abbink, Green Chi Group CEO: “The first question I got, when I mentioned Doug’s and the movie team’s approach to have our group on board as global partner and advisor for DE & I, was what on earth our Green Chi’s SDG- and ESG inspired mission and vision had to do with being involved in an action movie. My answer: “Everything! What better way of having an action movie, with a potentially huge audience, transmit both subliminally as well as directly, the normalcy of DE & I. So, we’re thrilled to be global corporate, licensing and product placement partners, working with and be part of the Cyberkill team now.”
