Carey Mulligan Joins Cast of Comedy Feature Film ONE FOR THE MONEY
Oscar-nominee Carey Mulligan (Promising Young Woman), Tom Basden (After Life), and Tim Key (Love Wedding Repeat) are set to star in a new comedy feature titled One For The Money, which Bankside Films is launching for world sales ahead of the Cannes market. Basden wrote the script for the film, and James Griffiths (Cuban Fury) is set to direct.
“The film will chart the story of an eccentric lottery winner, Charles, who lives alone on a remote island but attempts to turn his dreams into reality by hiring his favourite musician, Herb McGwyer, to play an exclusive, private gig. Unbeknownst to Herb, Charles has also hired Herb’s ex-band mate and ex-girlfriend, Nell, with her new husband in tow, to perform the old favourites. As tempers flare and old tensions resurface, the stormy weather traps them all on the island and Charles desperately looks for a way to salvage his dream gig.”
The film is being produced by Steve Coogan and Sarah Monteith’s Baby Cow (Philomena), which is majority owned by BBC Studios. Baby Cow’s Head of Development Rupert Majendie is lead producer. One For the Money is due to shoot this summer. Does this sound like a movie you’d want to check out?
