“Danny Dyer is one of the finest actors of his generation and a genuine British icon who connects with a mass audience. Combined with the unique material and the directing talent of Brendan Muldowney, this is all set to be a game-changer. We’re thrilled to be on board for both UK distribution and world sales through Sunrise Films", they stated.
Director Brendan Muldowney also added: “I am so excited to be working on Peter's amazing script for THREE QUICK BREATHS. It is a funny, thrilling and surprisingly moving, adrenaline fuelled story, and James ‘Jimmy’ Banks is one of the best characters I've ever read in a script. One actor, one location thrillers are incredibly intense and I can’t wait to work with Danny on bringing ‘Jimmy Banks’ to life in all his glory".
