Jonathan Gershfield - director
Comedy director Jonathan Gershfield has a number of impressive television credits, including ‘Dead Ringers’ (2002), ‘Twisted Tales’ (2005) and ‘My Life as a Popat’ (2004). We filmed him working on his new feature film, ‘3 and Out’, due for release in 2008.
3 and Out
‘3 and Out’ is a comedy about ordinary people with unique dilemmas. How far will they go? Will the cocktail of desperation, friendship, loneliness, love and even a brush with cannibalism derail their intent?
‘Pirates of the Caribbean’ star, Mackenzie Crook (‘The Brothers Grimm’, ‘Finding Neverland’, ‘The Office’), is Paul Callow, against Golden Globe nominee, Colm Meaney (‘Layer Cake’, ‘Con Air’, ‘The Commitments’) as Tommy Cassidy. BAFTA award-winner Imelda Staunton (‘Vera Drake’, ‘Harry Potter’) plays Tommy’s estranged wife Rosemary, and Gemma Arterton (‘RocknRolla’, ‘St. Trinian’s’) plays feisty Frankie.
The crew includes BAFTA award-winners Richard Greatrex (‘Shakespeare in Love’; ‘Run Fat Boy Run’) as Director of Photography and Jon Gregory (‘Four Weddings and a Funeral’) as Editor. Steve Lewis and Tony Owen have written the screenplay and it is produced by Wayne Marc Godfrey. Director, Jonathan Gershfield makes his feature debut having directed several high profile British television comedy series, including ‘Big Train’ and the first three series of ‘Dead Ringers’.
