Cameras are about to roll on the British urban action comedy, marking BAFTA winner Deacon's return to filmmaking.

“We are so excited that this incredible cast are joining the project bringing these wacky and crazy characters to life,” said Deacon. “More than ever, we are celebrating the variety of life in East London in 2022. Both darkly authentic, as well as embracing the vibrant and diverse lifestyle of living in an East London council estate.”

Written by Deacon, Zonzolo and Michael Vu, the film marks actor-writer-director Deacon’s comeback to filmmaking after several years away from the industry, and over a decade since his 2011 directorial debut, he sensationally won the BAFTA Rising Star award in 2012 , but later stepped back after a public battle with mental heath, having been diagnosed as bipolar in 2015.

“Both myself and Robert Williams are excited to be starting our maiden voyage into film making with this incredible script,” said executive producer Barry McNicholl of Piece of Pie Productions. “With Kevin Bishop, our head creative, bringing his thirty year career to Adam’s exceptional talent and vision, we have high expectations for this film.

BAFTA Breakthrough casting director Heather Basten has cast the film alongside Bishop, Deacon and the producing team.
