JW Marriott Hotels & Resorts and Marriott International’s Content Studio began production Wednesday on Two Bellmen Two in partnership with Substance Over Hype, the second comedic, action-packed film following the release of the original Two Bellmen.
Slated for a multiplatform premiere in January 2016, the studio’s fourth original short film will be shot on location at the “tallest hotel” in the world – JW Marriott Marquis Hotel Dubai.
The story returns to follow bellmen Gage and Christian, played by Hollywood actors and stuntmen William Spencer (Spider-Man; Spider-Man 2) and Caine Sinclaire (NBC’s Grimm; How I Met Your Mother) respectively.

The movie also features a cameo from JW Marriott’s brand partner and event planner Colin Cowie. The film will showcase Dubai’s vibrant culture as a character in its own right, from glittering cityscapes to pristine beaches and more.
Two Bellmen Two will have a global multiplatform premiere in early 2016 through a limited theatrical release, YouTube, Marriott.com and additional digital-platform rollouts, as well as via in-room and partner channels.
Plans to produce Two Bellmen Three are also in the works, to be shot on location at one of JW Marriott’s properties in the Asia-Pacific region.
