Mystery-thriller linking Kevin Bacon’s mystique of “six degrees of separation” with Harvey Keitel’s iconic covert problem-fixer “Mr. Wolf” from Pulp Fiction. This link considers Mr. Wolf as the “first degree”, whose mentorship begins the Kevin Bacon-centered network. In parallel, Kevin Bacon’s wife, Kyra Sedgwick, is foreshadowed as a knowing operative of Mr. Wolf, rather than an innocent partner.
The scope is a franchise launched with two movies, released on the same date (rather than sequentially). Movie A puts Kevin Bacon as the first of the six degrees, while Movie B puts Kyra Sedgwick as the “first”. Both characters have first names that start with K, just saying. The Story Arc allows either interpretation regarding how Mr. Wolf started the cycle and why, as to which of the two K-partners is the “chicken” and which is the “egg”.
Subsequent layers reveal Mr. Wolf’s origin, perhaps with a Helen Mirren-esque driven “prequel” stories.
