Actor Kevin Sorbo gave a nod and a wave to the camera as he rode a boat into Pensacola Bay Tuesday afternoon while working on a new film called “A Matter of Time,” tentatively set to release in January 2013.
Sunshine and blue skies made for a picturesque day of filming in Pensacola and Gulf Breeze Tuesday. Sorbo acted on location at Joe Patti’s Seafood and on a boat behind a Gulf Breeze home.

“It’s a wonderful film,” Sorbo said. “It sends a good message. It’s nice to be a part of movies like this.”

The veteran film and television actor rose to stardom in the mid-1990s in the title role of the hugely popular “Hercules, the Legendary Journeys” television series. Since then he’s starred in many dramas, sci-fi and sword and sorcery films and television shows.

In his new film, Sorbo plays a reclusive father mourning the death of his wife who becomes concerned when he sees his son start to withdraw as well.

“His son starts to follow in his footsteps,” said movie producer Brad Allen. “That’s really what snaps his character back into it.”

Sorbo’s character escapes to a place called Angler Island, but locals will recognize it in the film as the Gulf Breeze and Pensacola Bay area.

“We’re shooting here in Pensacola because of a fictitious island in our movie called Angler Island,” Allen said. “So Pensacola Beach is Angler Island in this movie.”

Filming also took place earlier in the day at Joe Patti’s Seafood, which was used as the location for the seafood market that Sorbo’s character owns.

Jason Burkey, an actor based in Nashville, Tenn., plays Sorbo’s son in the film. He said that his character becomes a hermit, much like his father.

“He’s kind of a troubled guy,” Burkey said. “He kind of runs away from home, where he leaves behind this past where he was hurt.”

Burkey said that he has loved working in the Pensacola area.

“Pensacola is amazing,” Burkey said. “I just love the downtown area, and the beach is beautiful. The locations we’ve had have been incredible.”

Sorbo also said he enjoyed coming to Pensacola for the first time.

“It’s great, I love it down here,” Sorbo said.

The producer said that the majority of “A Matter of Time” will be filmed in Nashville, Tenn., but the movie is actually set in North Carolina.

“A Matter of Time” is produced by Affiliation Films, which is based in Tennessee.

POISON SKY The Movie

SHORT SYNOPSIS
Fresh from his residency program, Dr. David Gibson takes off for a small town in Arizona to spend a few relaxing weeks with his fiancée, Samantha Grey. But shortly after he arrives, he is pulled into a growing series of events resulting from mysterious illnesses, and even deaths, of the
fine citizens of this quaint town.

David discovers a small amount of a green gooey substance caught in the hair of a young child… her reaction to the effects of the substance brings her close to the brink of death. As he researches the source of this chemical mixture, more citizens of the town come forward with similar medical crisis.

His fiancé, attorney Samantha Grey, calls on the resources of the law firm where she works. But even the esteemed Judge in town seems to shut down their theories at every turn. Determined to find the truth, they are shocked to find similar situations worldwide.

Their search catches the attention of a secret society, whose members will do anything to keep their agendas hidden and their purposes on track. The head of the organization has global ties that go back generations. Their clandestine methods have no boundaries. Did David and Samantha stumble onto proof of the sinister intent of the group? Are the various governments a part of a global conspiracy? If so, what is their ultimate goal?
