📢📢 NEWS: We are excited to announce that production has started on our next film; Sam Mendes’ EMPIRE OF LIGHT. 🎥 Written and directed by Sam Mendes, EMPIRE OF LIGHT stars Olivia Colman, Micheal Ward, Colin Firth, Toby Jones, Crystal Clark and Tanya Moodie with Tom Brooke and Hannah Onslow also joining the cast. The film will be released theatrically by Searchlight Pictures who we are so happy to finally be working with. EMPIRE OF LIGHT is set in and around a beautiful old cinema on the south coast of England in the 1980’s. The film will shoot in Margate, England and along the Kent coastline through May. Sam Mendes said: “I’m really thrilled to be working with so many wonderful collaborators across both cast and crew on such a personal project. It’s a particular thrill to be working for the first time with Olivia Colman, and to be working once again with my long-term collaborator Roger Deakins.” EMPIRE OF LIGHT’s Producer and Neal Street’s Pippa Harris has said, “We are delighted to be working with Searchlight on EMPIRE OF LIGHT, and couldn’t hope for better partners. They have been incredibly collaborative and supportive as we embark on this new venture together.” Stay tuned for more updates! 📸 - Chris Baker | Michael Shelford | Mariano Vivanco | Andrew Ogilvy | Clive Barda | Pip | Michael Shelford | A.P.
