Yann Demange joins Reset UK
Demange made a name for himself as a filmmaker in the U.K. on BAFTA nominated productions like Top Boy, Dead Set and the critically acclaimed 71.
Acclaimed director Yann Demange has signed to Reset UK, a move which consolidates his successful and long-standing relationship with Reset in the US.
Demange made a name for himself as a filmmaker in the U.K. on BAFTA nominated productions like Top Boy, Dead Set and the critically acclaimed 71, starring Jack O’Connell. The latter of which received the British Independent Film Award for Best Director.
Demange directed the feature film White Boy Rick (Sony) starring Matthew McConaughey and the pilot of BAFTA, Golden Globe, and multi-Emmy-nominated television drama, Lovecraft Country (HBO).
In commercials Demange has brought his distinctive cinematic weight to a number of seminal commercials for high profile brands including Nike, META, Mercedes, EA Sports, Cancer Research and, most recently, Johnnie Walker.
Demange is currently preparing Blade to shoot in 2023, which will be the first R-rated project to come from Disney’s Marvel franchise.
Dave Morrison, Reset co-founder, says: “RESET has always been centred around a culture of true filmmakers and Yann speaks volumes to this. This move enables us to continue to support his range of talent and provide opportunities beyond the US."
