The uplifting, new film Walking with Herb takes audiences on an 18-hole rollercoaster ride as one man discovers how the impossible can become possible through faith, family and second chances . . . and with the help of God’s motorcycle-riding messenger!
Walking with Herb features Golden Globe and Emmy winner Edward James Olmos (Battlestar Galactica, Stand and Deliver) and comedy legend George Lopez (George Lopez Show). Academy Award nominee Kathleen Quinlan (Apollo 13) also stars in the film.
“It was one of the best experiences I’ve ever had working on a film,” said Olmos, who plays the lead character, and is an executive producer. “An amazing script and an excellent cast combine for a heart-warming, funny story about golf, belief and second chances.”
Joe Amable-Amo (Olmos) is a bank executive and former amateur golfer struggling with his faith after an unexpected tragedy. Faced with doubts about himself, his purpose and his belief in God, Joe is stunned when God tells him that he’s been chosen to inspire the world and play in a world championship golf tournament. Guided by God’s eccentric personal messenger, Herb (Lopez), Joe learns that the seemingly impossible is possible…through faith, family and second chances.
Walking with Herb is based on the book of the same name by Las Cruces, New Mexico, banker and golfer Joe S. Bullock. It was filmed in Las Cruces.
Walking with Herb premieres April 30, May 1, and May 3 for a three-night nationwide Fathom Events limited engagement. Find tickets at FathomEvents.com or WalkingWithHerbMovie.com.
“As we emerge from a challenging year, we could all use a film that uplifts, entertains and reminds us of what is possible,” said Fathom Events CEO Ray Nutt. “Walking with Herb is the right movie at the right time,”

It is distributed by Fathom Events. The film is executive produced by Olmos, Lopez, Bullock, William Blaylock. Producers are Brian Espinosa, Kagan Marks and Medoff.
