Paul Thompstone who is leading the production for Studio Atlantic along with fellow producers Mike Jones, John Lerchen and accompanied by Garret and Paige Smith of Mad Honey Productions, commented “The Gates was initially brought to us by writer, Tim Reynolds, and producer, Mike Jones, back in 2017. From reading the initial pass of the screeplay, Stephen and I knew that this had to be produced for a global audience to see. Following years of development along with the grueling decision-making process of who to partner with, it is a truly indescribable feeling to finally witness ‘The Gates’ coming to life. We would like to thank 101 Films International and Mad Honey Productions for helping us every step of the way.”
Andy Lyon, 101 Films International CEO said “I would like to thank Paul for allowing us to be involved with this amazing project. From the moment we were pitched the movie we absolutely loved it. It is incredibly commercial and joins a significant slate of other movies we are backing this year. Its also great to be able to support an Irish production given our recent acquisition of Silentpoint and the establishment of Amcomri Productions, our content hub based in Ireland, as we further increase our global footprint.”
