Amcomri Entertainment has inked a four-picture deal with M & M Film Productions.
Under the terms of the deal, Amcomri will become M & M’s official financing partner, co-financing a slate of movies with the U.K.-based production house.
Amcomri’s sales arm, 101 Films International, will distribute the films.
The deal came about following this year’s Cannes, where 101 Films premiered “Fear the Invisible Man,” an M & M production. M & M was founded in 2018 by Malcolm Winter and Monika Gergelova.
101 Films are also set to distribute Amcomri and M & M’s upcoming co-production “Christmas At The Holly Day Inn,” which stars Tamla Kari (“The Inbetweeners”), pictured above. The family-friendly film, about a high-flying exec who quits her job and flees to her dad’s country inn for Christmas, is written by Lisa Chapman (“Law of Attraction”) and directed by Adam Wilson (“Crawl To Me Darling”).
