Saban Films has taken U.S. distribution rights to Academy Award Winner James Marsh’s (The Theory of Everything) King of Thieves starring Academy Award Winner Sir Michael Caine (The Quiet American), Academy Award Winner Jim Broadbent (The Iron Lady), Academy Award Nominee Sir Tom Courtenay (45 Years), Golden Globe Nominee Sir Michael Gambon (The King’s Speech), BAFTA Nominee Ray Winstone (The Departed) and Charlie Cox (Daredevil).
Bill Bromiley and Jonathan Saba negotiated the deal for Saban Films along with StudioCanal and Anne Chérel and Loubna Berrada on behalf of filmmakers.
“’King of Thieves’ is led by a stellar British ensemble cast,” said Saban Films’ Bill Bromiley.
“The pedigree of Michael, Jim, Tom, as well as Working Title make a very attractive package.
