Mike was recently in a film starring Henry Winkler, Dylan McDermott, Gordon Michaels, Charles Durning, Glady's Knight, and Phyllis Diller called, "UNBEATABLE HAROLD" which will be released in theatres starting in January 2009.  Mike played news anchor Donnie James.  The film won best comedy in the Detroit Windsor International Film Festival, and kicked off the festival at the prestigious Detroit Institute of the Arts.  The red carpet VIP event was attended by the star of the film, Gordon Michaels.  John Lauri of J. Lauri Filmworks in Birmingham, MI was the 2nd unit director on the film and shot the news anchor sequence which Mike was cast in.  His co-anchor in the film was played by Jennifer Kincer, another popular Detroit actress.

The event received much attention by the media, and was published in Oakland Press, Birmingham Eccentric, and the prestigious Ambassador Magazine.  The paparazzi were present and captured the highlights that night.  Here are photos of the event as well as awards ceremony that followed that same weekend.
