Just a quick update on the next film from director Ben Wheatley (Kill List), entitled Sightseers. The flick has begun shooting and will continue to do so for the next four weeks in Derbyshire, Yorkshire and the Lake District.
Actors Alice Lowe and Steve Oram wrote the script with additional material from Amy Jump. The plot remains under wraps, but here are some really vague details for you cats to chew on – “The story is about a couple on a countryside caravan trip that goes wrong.”
StudioCanal will distribute in the UK, and Protagonist Pictures handles international sales.
Katherine Butler, Film4 Senior Commissioning Executive, called the film “hilariously twisted” while Lizzie Francke, Senior Production Executive at BFI Film Fund, added: “‘Sightseers’ takes us on a bizarre journey through some of Britain’s most offbeat tourist destinations.”
More as it comes.
