The Bermondsey Tales trailer has dropped. To give it its full title; Bermondsey Tales: Fall of the Roman Empire, a new British crime ‘comedy thriller’ which is a who’s who of British talent, including John Hannah, Alan Ford, Frank Harper, Maisie Smith, Daniel O’Reilly, Adam Deacon, Vas Blackwood, Linda Robson, Charlotte Kirk and Charlie Clapham. It will be released in cinemas on 17th May and then on digital in June.
We have the synopsis which you can check out below.
London crime boss Mick Roman is deathly ill, and time is running out to find a successor. His only options are an aging consigliere or an impulsive enforcer, and neither are suitable to take the throne. Meanwhile, chaos reigns over the family who are coping with a paranoid ex-soldier, the return of a rebellious niece, and a drug-fuelled business meeting in Amsterdam. With deceit, ambition and infighting on the rise, this Roman empire may be about to fall.
Commenting on the UK release, director and writer Michael Head said;
“It was an honour to work with such a great cast on a story based on my family history. I am delighted to see it get a cinematic release and can’t wait to share this with the UK audience and hope it does my family and South London proud”.
Producer, Rohit Nathaniel, added; “This has been an incredible journey from discussing the script with Michael, to getting a fabulous cast and now producing this gangster comedy on the big screen for everyone to enjoy”.
