UK FILM: THE KNOT – STARRING NOEL CLARKE (POSTER)

Yes yet another film starring Noel Clarke. He also co-wrote the screenplay. Film synopsis: Soulmates Alexandra (Talulah Riley) and Jeremy (Matthew McNulty) are getting married. At least that’s the plan. Unfortunately for them, nonchalant best man Peter (Noel Clarke), bridesmaid Sarah (Mena Suvari) and an army of naysayers haven’t heard they’re meant to be together. Can missing bridesmaids, crashed cars, a trip to A&E, and a delivery of pigs testicles stand in the way of true love? Choice FM morning breakfast show host Kojo will also appear []

UK NEWS: ASHLEY WALTERS AND NOEL CLARKE SET TO BRING US THE UK VERSION OF ‘BAD BOYS’

Actor Ashley Walters has revealed to The Telegraph that he has co-written a script with fellow actor and director Noel Clarke. Walters describes it as being, A UK version of Bad Boys. We’re playing cops,  we’re trying to make police glamorous over here, trying to give an advert to   the Met.” Well this should be interesting. With a decent storyline and a talented fresh supporting cast of actor/actresses (not the same old faces) this could be a success. I hope they manage to get the project off the ground.
