Angelina Jolie and Jonny Lee Miller Back Jeremy Gilley's 'Peace One Day'

'Peace One Day' Film Inspires Growing List of Supporters

NEW YORK, Sept. 12 /PRNewswire/ -- Jeremy Gilley, Director/Producer/Writer of the 'Peace One Day' film and Founder of Peace One Day, announced today that Angelina Jolie and Jonny Lee Miller have joined the growing list of supporters committed to raising awareness for World Peace Day, September 21, brought into existence through the making of Gilley's inspirational film.

The 'Peace One Day' film documents Jeremy Gilley's six year journey to establish the first ever day of global ceasefire and non-violence. Among a series of dramatic events, Gilley gains support from world leaders, UN officials, peace activists, business moguls, Nobel Laureates, rock stars and individuals worldwide to ultimately reach his goal via the unanimous adoption by UN member states of UN GA Resolution 55/282.

"Through Jeremy's sheer perseverance, a day now exists for people and communities to come together and work towards a peaceful future. This year's World Peace Day is a call to action for September 21st, 2006 - we are asking all sectors of society, including every UN member state to commit to actively observing this UN Resolution," said Angelina Jolie.

"We must all do what we can to support individuals and initiatives that aspire to make a difference in the world. Jeremy Gilley is a testament to this -- individuals can, in fact, make a difference," said Jonny Lee Miller.

"Everyone, from individuals to governments, can send their commitments to Peace One Day," Jeremy Gilley said today, "Please let us know how you will be marking September 21st. World Peace Day is envisioned to become a moment of global unity -- it is up to each and every one of us to make this a reality."

Please watch for the film's debut on Sundance Channel, airing September 21st, 2005, and DVD release by Netflix.
