Irish producer Paul Thompstone and Sorin Baluta have launched a new sales agency out of Ireland. The company, Studio Atlantic, launches in Cannes with a World War II feature set to shoot in Belgium this fall.
Having specialized in production finance, Thompstone has a large network of funders, including private equity, for high-concept feature films and television. One of the company’s first titles is Julian Kerknawi’s World War II feature “The Last Front,” which will star Sasha Luss (“Valerian and the City of a Thousand Planets”) and begin shooting in September.
Situated on Ireland’s west coast, Studio Atlantic is encouraging overseas producers to get in touch if they are considering Ireland — which hosted high-profile shoots such as “Vikings” and “The Favourite” — as a potential location in upcoming productions.
“Ireland boasts a variety of world class standard film studios in all corners of the country, as well as...
