A funny and touching story about what – and who – makes a family and the surprising lessons of self-acceptance a child can teach an adult, BREAKFAST WITH SCOT stars Tom Cavanaugh ("Ed", "Scrubs"), Ben Shenkman ("Just Like Heaven", "Angels in America") and newcomer Noah Bernett ("Gothica"). Paul Brown produces and Howard Rosenman and Nadine Schiff executive produce the film. Capri Releasing will handle domestic distribution. Production assistance is provided by Telefilm Canada, The Ontario Media Development Corporation, The Harold Greenberg Fund and Movie Central. The twenty-five day shoot in and around Toronto will wrap on December 15.

BREAKFAST WITH SCOT is about a very straight gay couple – Sam, an ex-Toronto Maple Leaf, and Ed, the team's lawyer – whose lifestyle and relationship are turned upside down when they become the guardians of Scot, a budding queen of an eleven-year-old boy. Reluctant to get involved in the first place, Sam and Ed find themselves in conflict with each other about bringing Scot into their already full and rich lives. Feelings change, however, as the pair are caught off-guard by this unique young character who is joyously and unashamedly himself.

This thoughtful comedy takes a look at homosexuality in professional sports and society's resistance to accepting gay heroes. The National Hockey League takes a progressive step by endorsing BREAKFAST WITH SCOT and granting the production rights to use NHL and Toronto Maple Leafs' names and likeness in the film.

Canadian producer Paul Brown ("I Was a Rat", "Zeyda and the Hitman") says, "I'm excited to be making a hugely entertaining film that is really about something. BREAKFAST WITH SCOT is a rare combination – a family friendly comedy that will touch people – and though it is about an unconventional family, it is told in a truly conventional way. Scot teaches us to accept our children for who they are and celebrate their uniqueness. As an adoptive parent, this is a true joy in my life!"

Vice President of Capri Releasing, Robin Smith says, "We are over-the-moon to have the opportunity to work on such a great production. BREAKFAST WITH SCOT manages to be both unconventional and commercial at the same time – a rare feat for feature films these days. We have high expectations for this film and we're very excited to be working with Laurie Lynd, Paul Brown and the rest of their production team on a film that perfectly fits into our current roster of titles."
