Documentary Infiltrates Hollywood & Scientology
New York Times bestselling author and award winning filmmaker Ian Halperin is proud to release his newest film, His Highness Hollywood, onto DVD. In his latest "outing," Halperin poses as a gay actor to infiltrate The Church of Scientology and the world of Hollywood.
The film is based on Halperin's bestselling book Hollywood Undercover. In this compelling, hilarious and controversial look behind the scenes of Hollywood, Halperin spends months going undercover as a gay actor. The film received a lot of publicity recently when at the NY premiere in front of hundreds of people someone sabotaged the film projector because they did not want the film to be shown.
His Highness Hollywood features appearances by numerous well known celebrities, including Bill Paxton, Sigourney Weaver, Catherine Zeta Jones, Janice Dickinson, Jay Leno, Marla Maples, Melissa Rivers, Gary Lockwood, Ron Jeremy, Joe Franklin, Brad Pitt and Vincent Chase. Halperin's undercover stint with the Church of Scientology also recently made world headlines as he became the first person on record to film what actually goes on in Scientology.
In the film, Halperin, who is known for his past undercover exposes, infiltrates casting rooms and befriends several A-list actors and industry people by posing as a gay actor who's a member of the so-called "Israeli Royal Family." He then ends up in a top Hollywood acting school, gets put into shape by Usher's personal trainer and is cast for several major film roles, all while infiltrating The Church of Scientology, which offers him a "cure" for his homosexuality.
Inside the Church, Halperin meets several celebrities who joined Scientology, who give him the scoop on the gay rumors surrounding several of the Church's high profile members, including John Travolta and Tom Cruise. One longtime Scientologist tells Halperin who Travolta's longtime ex male lover was and how Scientology pressured Travolta to marry actress Kelly Preston and turn straight. "If you don't give up being gay the Church threatens to publicly reveal your most intimate secrets that they have recorded during their process of auditing," one notorious member of Scientology told Halperin.
