AGC Studios and CAA Media Finance have come on board to finance the prison-set thriller 'Panopticon,' which Ridley Scott's Scott Free Productions will produce and 'Narcos' director Andrés Baiz will helm. Details:
Emily Jerome's Black List script follows Chase, an ambitious and rising hedge fund manager who decides to go all in on an investment in PCC Correctional, an Arizona based private prison system that is racking up huge profits. But while the deal looks certain to help her career, Chase discovers, on a tour of the prison, that things are not as they seem. The inmates are running the show.
Tom Moran and Vera Meyer will oversee the project, with Kevin Walsh producing for Scott Free alongside Jerome and AGC Studios’ Stuart Ford and head of production Linda McDonough. Ridley Scott will executive produce. "Emily Jerome has written a powerful, taut thriller wrapped up in the all too prescient real world arena of the U.S. incarceration system," says Ford. "We’re excited to be putting the project together with her and our friends at Scott Free."and will introduce the project to buyers at next month's virtual Cannes film market. CAA Media Finance will handle the domestic sale. CAA and AGC will co-represent Chinese distribution rights.
