Simon Pegg and Minnie Driver are set to star in an upcoming darkish comedy titled Nandor Fodor and The Speaking Mongoose, which is coming from writer-director Adam Sigal (Chariot).

Producer Sasha Yelaun stated: “The explanation I really like working with Adam is he comes up with recent concepts and unique content material, which is uncommon to seek out. I see loads of remakes, this isn’t certainly one of them and it’s thrilling to deliver wonderful stars to the desk that really feel the identical akin to Simon and Minnie. I’m excited to see them in motion collectively and watch Adam ship one other cerebral film that makes you suppose.”
Legion M’s co-founder and President, Jeff Annison added: “Our shareholders have made it made it clear they worth unique tales and storytellers. We couldn’t be extra thrilled to be working with Adam, Simon, and Minnie to deliver this wildly imaginative story to the large display.”
