In an Official Announcement by Signature Entertainment "Three Day Millionaire" has been selected for a prime UK & Ireland release on Netflix on February 25th , it is an honour for all that a film that many people from Grimsby have worked on will be on a major streaming alongside all the great films that will be part of streaming on platform.
I was a runner commissioned to help out on the film, so it's great to see that we finally got it finished and the massive results that have come out of the film, and that we have since achieved No.1 status for comedy within 48 hours of its release on the platform.
The film, follows After weeks at sea working for Grimsby's last remaining trawler, three friends return home to have the ultimate three-day-long celebration. However, when they discover the company owner hasn’t been paying the workers and plans to shut the company’s doors forever, they realize they must save their company, save their friends, and most importantly, save their way of life. With the help of an unexpected confidant, the three lads attempt to carry out the greatest heist Grimsby has ever seen – what could possibly go wrong?
The production gave me a fantastic opportunity to work with many different creative departments across the three weeks of production, and alongside gave me a greater depth of knowledge necessary to assist on other productions in the future. As a prospective filmmaker this was a dream project to work on. I loved assisting the crew and exploring much of the history and creative collaboration that goes into a feature film of this scale. Now having the film on a prestigious streaming service makes the feeling better and gives such much recognition to an outstanding crew.
