Screen Media Acquires Three

13 Apr, 2010 By: Billy Gil


Screen Media Films has made three acquisitions: Gareth Lewis’ Assassin in Love (previously titled The Baker), Steven Kastrissios’ The Horseman and Deon Taylor’s The Hustle.

Assassin in Love stars Band of Brothers’ Damian Lewis and the “Harry Potter” series’ Michael Gambon in a film about a hit man who seeks to reform his ways (and escape his former boss) by taking a job as a baker in a rural Welsh village. The film saw a limited theatrical release and will street on DVD in the fourth quarter of 2010.

The Horseman, to be released in the second quarter of 2010, is a thriller about a father and daughter on a revenge-motivated killing spree in the Australian Outback.

Meanwhile, The Hustle will come out on DVD in the third quarter of 2010 and stars Charlie Murphy (Night at the Museum, your annoying friends’ Dave Chappelle impersonations), as well as certifiably crazy Bai Ling, David Alan Grier, John Witherspoon (Friday), Brigitte Nielsen (she did it with Sylvester Stallone AND Flava Flav!) and David Faustino (Bud on “Married … With Children”). It’s about an exterminator. Wow.
