The companies have scheduled shooting dates for The Ladykiller and The More You Ignore Me.

The Ladykiller

The Little Film Company and Genesius Entertainment have set principal photography dates for two of their latest feature film projects, after previously teaming on Hamlet and Northern Soul.  

First film The Ladykiller, set to be the first of a trilogy, has Tim Fywell (Ice Princess) attached to direct John Hales’ adaptation of Martina Cole’s novel of the same name.

The film’s story follows a man who takes the law into his own hands after his daughter falls prey to a serial killer. Principal photography is scheduled to begin in Spring 2016 in the UK.

Producers are Debbie Gray, Martina Cole and Chris Whiteside.

Second film The More You Ignore Me is based on comedian Jo Brand’s novel about mental illness, written using her experiences as a psychiatric health worker.

Keith English will mark his feature debut with the film, which will star Maxine Peake (The Theory Of Everything) in the lead role.

Debbie Gray is producing the project, while Brand is acting as executive producer. Principal photography will begin in October 2015 in the UK.
