SEATTLE, WA, UNITED STATES, September 30, 2025 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Award-winning singer, songwriter Eugenie Jones is stepping into the world of film. Jones has been cast in a new movie, "The Other Side of Fame," a romantic drama set in Cannes and directed by Erik Bernard.

'The Other Side of Fame' will undoubtedly bring a new audience to Jones' music while introducing the singer to a new platform for her intensely emotive and engaging stage presence.

Eugenie expressed her gratitude, saying, "My deepest thanks to Erik Bernard and the entire cast of 'The Other Side of Fame'; they are a fabulous group of people to work with, and being the jazz singer in a nightclub scene was a 'bucket-list' experience!"
