Naomi Scott (Aladdin), Kit Harington (Game Of Thrones) and Simon Callow (Shakespeare in Love) have wrapped shoot on romance Eternal Return, for Village Roadshow, Macro and BK Studios.
Since it was announced last Cannes, Macro and BK Studios are among new elements to have joined the project, which marks one of the last features produced by Brit Bill Kenwright who passed away in late October. Lakeshore is handling international sales.
Also starring are Sonoya Mizuno and Jay Lycurgo. Yaniv Raz (Dr. Bird’s Advice For Sad Poets) directs.
The film follows Cass (Scott), a young woman who has resigned herself to a life without love—until she meets Virgil (Harington), an enigmatic mapmaker who charts journeys to imaginary places, and his partner-in-crime, Malcolm (Simon Callow), whose relentless quest to travel back in time awakens Cass to love again.
Filming took place in London, Cardiff and Bristol with Range Select repping domestic and Lakeshore repping international.
Producing are Margot Hand for Picture Films; Jillian Apfelbaum and Tristen Tuckfield for Village Roadshow Pictures; James F. Lopez and Greta Talia Fuentes for Macro Film Studios; Kenwright for BK Studios; Naomi Scott and Jordan Spence for their banner New Name Entertainment (the project marks New Name’s feature debut); and director Yaniv Raz.
Among backers of the film were Jenna Segal’s Gatherer Entertainment, musician Moby’s production company Little Walnut, The Post Republic, and Picture Films.
Exec producers are Louis Santor and Nicolas Gordon for Village Roadshow Pictures; Charles D. King and Poppy Hanks for Macro; David Gilbery and Naomi George for BK Studios; and Jenna Segal, Moby, Michael Reuter, and Sebastian Barker. [Source]
