In 2006, Transcendent co-produced Two Weeks starring two time Academy Award winner Sally Field, Ben Chaplin and Tom Cavanagh, with writer-director Steve Stockman. The film was shot in Nashville. Worldwide rights were acquired by Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer which released the film theatrically and on DVD.

Next, Hahn produced and directed Deadline, starring Steve Talley and Academy Award nominee Eric Roberts. Deadline is adapted from Mark Ethridge's novel Grievances. Filming took place in middle Tennessee in January and February 2011. It was released in theaters nationwide in 2012 beginning with its world premiere in Nashville on February 15.
