Something wicked this way comes…
May 24, 2024Macbeth is coming. A couple corrupted by their relentless lust for power have blood on their hands. Witness the gripping tale of greed, murder, deception, and superstition on the big screen for a limited time only. Once you cross the line, you can never turn back.
Tony and BAFTA Award winner Ralph Fiennes (Antony & Cleopatra, Schindler’s List, Coriolanus) and Olivier Award winner Indira Varma (Present Laughter, Game of Thrones, Luther) star in a brand-new ‘full-voltage visceral’ (★★★★ Daily Telegraph) production of William Shakespeare’s Macbeth. Filmed live at Dock X, a custom-built theatre space in London, this critically acclaimed staging of Macbeth ‘that quickens the pulse, then goes for the jugular’ (★★★★ Financial Times) was released in cinemas across the UK and selected international territories this May.
The play was directed by Simon Godwin (Antony & Cleopatra, Romeo and Juliet, Hansard) with set and costume design by Frankie Bradshaw (Jerusalem, Blues for an Alabama Sky). The capture was directed and edited by Tim Van Someren, produced by Emily Cecil-Dennett, with DOP Nathaniel Hill, Post Production Supervisor Conor Moss and Executive Producers David Sabel, Marc Allenby, and Charlie Hinshelwood.
This is a cinematic and ‘beautifully staged’ (★★★★ WhatsOnStage) production that brings ‘Shakespeare’s tragedy pulsing into the present day’ (★★★★★ The I).
We were pleased to complete Picture Post for this project, as well as hosting the offline edit. Emily Russul Saib completed the grade, Adam Sample was on the online, with Jade Townsend as Post Producer. The project was delivered on a very tight schedule, but met the deadline looking great.
