LOS ANGELES – Aug. 13, 2025 – Independent filmmaker Mark Elias and DFM Creative have launched a campaign for We Could Be Heroes, a bold new crime comedy that fuses the energy of gamer culture with the style and wit of Booksmart and Snatch.
At its heart, the story follows a sharp, diverse young gamer girl who becomes the unlikely mastermind of a hilariously botched heist. Fast-paced, funny, and grounded in character, the film promises both commercial appeal and cultural relevance—especially for audiences hungry for fresh, female-driven stories in the gamer space.
“This isn’t just another indie comedy,” says Elias, who is producing his third feature film. “We’re building a film with strong IP potential, cross-platform storytelling opportunities, and a production model designed for both creative and financial success. And thanks to U.S. tax code 181, our investors may also benefit from a full tax write-off.”
The campaign allows everyday supporters and mission-aligned backers to join alongside industry professionals. By opening the project to public participation, the team invites fans, gamers, and film lovers to be part of the journey from script to screen.
Key Highlights:
The campaign offers exclusive behind-the-scenes updates, investor perks, and opportunities for backers to influence creative decisions.
