AFM'15: Gabriel Byrne joins DDI's Metanoia

DDI President Jason Moring announced today that DDI has attached Gabriel Byrne to METANOIA, joining David Tennant (HARRY POTTER, Doctor Who), Elizabeth Moss (Mad Men), and Michael Gambon (HARRY POTTER) to the project.

METANOIA will be directed by Robert Mullan, produced by Charlotte Arden and Harriet Hammond, and executive produced by Phin Glynn and Peter Dunphy. The film is a co-production between Gizmo Films and Bad Penny Productions.

METANOIA chronicles the world-renowned Scottish psychiatrist RD Laing's efforts to create a safe haven for people diagnosed with psychosis and schizophrenia. He was known for advocating the medical use of LSD, still legal at the time, and argued for the breaking down of divisions between patients and doctors. 

The movie is currently in pre-production and is set to begin filming in January 2016.

"The same way strong talent got attracted to Metanoia, movie buyers should want in on it early," said Jason Moring of DDI.
