“It’s exciting to have James Deen producing our film,” says “Cowboys & Engines” writer/director Bryn Pryor. “We’ve worked together before, and I know that his hands-on producing experience will help us get it done on time and on budget.”

“Cowboys & Engines” is an ambitious steampunk adventure following Cade Ballard (Jeff Cannata), the war-weary former ambassador from the nation of Texas, as he meets Guinivere Wheeler (Libby Letlow), a woman who proves to be as dangerous as she is charming. When they encounter Professor Nicholas Timéon (Walter Koenig) and learn that his temporal engine, a machine with incredible destructive power, has been stolen by would-be conqueror Dr. Clay, Cade and Guinivere set off to save San Francisco from total destruction.
The creative team behind “Cowboys & Engines” says the production is “An attempt to create something truly amazing; a dynamic, entertaining work of art for its own sake. A film that demonstrates without compromise that the people making it, irrespective of their professional backgrounds, are artists capable of working far beyond the narrow constraints of public expectation.”
