"Little Boy" is an upcoming American war comedy-drama film directed by Alejandro Gómez Monteverde and written by Monteverde and Pepe Portillo. The film stars Jakob Salvati, David Henrie, Kevin James, Emily Watson, Ted Levine, Michael Rapaport, Ali Landry and Ben Chaplin. The film is scheduled to be released on April 24, 2015, by Open Road Films. 

LITTLE BOY is a powerful and moving film about a little boy who is willing to do whatever it takes to bring his dad home from World War II alive. The heartwarming story will capture your heart and lift your spirits as it reveals the indescribable love a little boy has for his father and the love a father has for his son. Set in the 1940s, LITTLE BOY is an instant cinematic classic that captures the wonder of life through the eyes of a 7- year-old little boy. Written and directed by Smithsonian Institute Award winning director Alejandro Monteverde, LITTLE BOY highlights themes of faith, hope and love in the face of adversity.  

Born and raised in Mexico, the director said his success in Hollywood is not nearly as important as his relationship with God. "Like Mother Teresa said, we are not called to be successful... Success comes later. We are called to have faith in God, that is our success," said the director, who is a head of the non-profit pro-life organization Manto de Guadalupe.

Furthermore, the husband and wife duo Roma Downey and Mark Burnett executive produced "Little Boy" with hopes that the film encourages audiences across the world. The pair are also responsible for the upcoming television mini-series, "A.D. - The Bible Continues."
