Fudge Park preps music festival movie
Fudge Park Films is in prep on a new comedy feature set at UK music festivals, which will be directed by Inbetweeners co-creator Iain Morris.
Currently untitled, the film will follow a group of young people and recent graduates as they spend a summer enjoying themselves. The movie will shoot partly on location at real festival venues in and around London and the south-east.
Fudge Park Films was established by Morris and his Inbetweeners co-creator Damon Beesley in the summer of 2015.
The company has so far produced dark comedy series Ill Behaviour, following a group of friends who force homemade chemotherapy treatment on their cancer-afflicted housemate. Fudge Park has also made the 1980s-set White Gold (pictured), which is set amid a team of double-glazing salesmen in Essex and co-stars former Inbetweener actors James Buckley and Joe Thomas.
