INFECTED - the latest outbreak......of information

There's a lot of movement going on with INFECTED right now - defined and strong interest from the WSC, FAW, and hopefully therein the IP Fund of Wales, an investor in the US, and two investors in Canada. There is also interest now in attaching either Rob Bottin or Patrick Tatopoulos to take care of creature sfx, and we have industry 'ins' to both guys................so we have approached both to guage interest - just awaiting response now.

We have also developed and extended our crew list and service providers, to include Panavision, Kodak, Technicolour, Dragon DI, Reelsound, and Met Films, whilst also going out to a wider cast, most of whom have either responded with attachment (A) or a note of continued interest in attachment (C), or agreement to an approach (App). We should hear back from most of these within the next two weeks or so.

But it's looking good.


Michael Fassbender (App)
Rhona Mitra (App)
Sean Pertwee (C)
Toby Kebbel (App)
Alice Eve (App)
Cecile Cassel (C)
Andrew Tiernan (C)
Richard Brake (C)
Patrick Bergin (App)
James Fisher (A)
Rachel Warren (A)
Sebastian Street (A)
Jill Greenacre (A)
Jon Campling (A)

As of today there are still other support and minor characters to fill, and a host of quality actors are already in the frame, but there's little point in precision at this stage. However I do think this forms a very strong international cast for a £2m feature, and who knows, if either RB or PT come on board then the budget is sure to sky-rocket.

Let's hope the sales and distributors think the same.

Best,

Nick
