Interesting facts

Honeyglue is an American romantic drama film written and directed by James Bird, produced by Zombot Pictures. The film stars Adriana Mather, Zach Villa, Christopher Heyerdahl, Jessica Tuck, Booboo Stewart, and Amanda Plummer. The film premiered at Newport Beach Film Festival and was released theatrically in the United States on June 3, 2016.

Production

The events of Honeyglue are inspired by one of the producers (Anya Remizova) losing her father to cancer while filming Zombot Pictures's first film, Eat Spirit Eat. James Bird began doing research and writing the script for Honeyglue shortly after, as a way of dealing with the loss.

One of the major themes in the film is gender identity and sexuality, with the character of Jordan being gender fluid. Early in production a choice was made to not discuss gender in the film and not dwell on the issue. In an interview with DailyCal, Adriana Mather, who also produced the film, explained, “We do that on purpose because these are just people, and gender is on a spectrum.”

Filming commenced on February 2, 2014. Honeyglue was filmed in 20 days in various locations around Los Angeles, California, including El Matador State Beach, Downtown Los Angeles Arts District, and Glendale. The gothic club in the scene where Morgan and Jordan first meet is not a real venue and was built specifically for the production, inside an industrial warehouse in DTLA.
