Screen Ireland

[laughs] Like, uh, was there a beat when you heard about No Ordinary Heist and was like, "Oh, fuck"?

We have two of the same funders with Screen Ireland and RT, so we were aware of it.

And, uh, we, we just asked what the timescale of that was, and, um, we were told that it, it ended, you know, just a- as the robbery is, is finished, uh, which is just the start of our film, so that w- you know, that was fine.

Yeah.

I, I wasn't familiar with The Wheel of Time.

I'd never, never watched it.

Uh, it was, um, Greg in Screen Ireland.

Uh, he was our, he was our producer in Screen Ireland.

Yeah.

There'd be, there'd be a, there'd be quite a few projects funded both by Screen Ireland and NI, NI Screen.

Great

And they'll film in both jurisdictions.

[laughs]

... 'cause I did see Screen Ireland were heavily mentioned in the credits.

I mean, you're absolutely right.

Let's face it.

And then there's stuff in the book that wasn't...

Or sorry, stuff in the film that's not in the book at all, like the British soldier, you know, Screen Ireland.

Halfway through development, someone gave us a very clever note going, totally appreciate that in Inniskillen in 1994, there was only white people.

But you're making a movie now and we need a bit of diversity in it.
