"THE (FOOTBALL) PLAYER"? WHITE PLANS A DENVER FILM STUDIO

          Packers DE REGGIE WHITE is set to "unveil his plans"
     for a $100M film production and distribution studio based in
     Denver, according to Al Lewis of the DENVER POST.  The new
     venture, called REGGIE WHITE STUDIOS (RWS), will produce
     major motion pictures, made-for-TV movies and original cable
     TV programming.  White's partners in the company include
     Rockies Vice Chair RICHARD MONFORT and Denver businessman
     RODNEY LINAFELTER.  Linafelter recently helped finance the
     film "Reggie's Prayer," which starred White as a pro
     football player who leaves the game to teach and coach a
     high school football team.  RWS spokesperson Tate Shetterly
     said the new studio will "put a heavy emphasis on family and
     children programming with excellent merchandising
     opportunities." Shetterly added that a specific location has
     not yet been found, but that the studio "would definitely be
     headquartered in downtown Denver" (DENVER POST, 6/10).
