Starring Bradley Whitford, Neve Campbell and Rupert Penry-Jones, Burn Up is a two-part provocative drama set in the real-life context of climate change.

Burn Up is a powerful story of love, commitment and divided loyalty - a thriller in which the stakes couldn’t be higher. This topical thriller sees oil company executives, environmental activists and politicians collide in the battle between economic success and ecological responsibility.

Campbell plays Holly, whose covert collaboration with environmentalists puts her in great jeopardy, and Whitford plays Tom’s best friend Mack, a charismatic yet unscrupulous oil industry lobbyist.

We follow the trio’s lives and loves as they hurtle towards a global climate change summit.
BBC Commissioning Editor for Drama, Lucy Richer, said, “Burn Up is a highly authored piece wholly of this unique moment in time. The exciting mix of US, Canadian and UK talent, the awesome backdrop of the Canadian wilds combined with Simon’s taut and provocative script makes for an epic proposition.”

Scream 4 could be in the pipeline. The Weinstein Company, the production firm formed by the high-profile producing pair the Weinstein Brothers, announced it would be developing a third sequel to the lucrative franchise that parodied the horror genre. It’s as yet unclear whether writer Kevin Williamson, director Wes Craven and star Neve Campbell will participate in the project. There have been attempts to resurrect the franchise in the past, but so far they have failed.

Burn Up is the (totally and completely fictional) story about a clash between Big Oil and Big Green. The Canadian/British miniseries features Party of Five star Neve Campbell as an environmentalist hired to work for an oil company (as a greenwash decoy, of course, though she doesn’t realize it until too late … mwahahaha).

Unfortunately for us Yanks, though, Burn Up will not be airing stateside. (At least not yet.) But if you’re one of our lucky readers in Canada or the U.K., catch it Tuesday and Wednesday on Global or BBC, respectively.

Neve Campbell is the wild card in a new real-time British gangster film about four drug dealing punks trying to figure out which one of them has $4 million in cash.

It took ten years, but after debuting at the 1998 Edinburgh Fringe Festival and being staged in London’s West End the following spring, the play Matchstalk Man is finally set to be turned into a movie. Unfolding in real time, the black comedy adaptation takes place mostly in a derelict, abandoned warehouse, where four small-time hoodlums on the run from police engage in a game of cat and mouse to figure out where the cash proceeds from an illicit cocaine sale has gone. The film will mark the directorial debut of theater veteran Alexander Holt and will feature Neve Campbell playing the part of Pansy, one of the four conniving principals. Also attached to the film alongside Campbell are Billy Boyd (The Lord of the Rings), Kelly Reilly (Mrs. Henderson Presents) and Jamie Foreman, son of 1960’s London gangster Freddie Forman. ‘Matchstalk Man is a film about atmosphere, claustrophobia and above all characters and plot racing to a final conclusion which should leave the audience gasping, heads reeling and wanting more,’ Holt writes on the film’s official website. ‘We will be paying homage to a variety of styles using different formats e.g. for fantasy flashbacks, imagine the style of Tim Burton meets Quentin Tarantino; for the present grittiness of the warehouse, imagine Michael Mann meets Danny Boyle.’ Further bolstering the Matchstalk Man cast are a pair of co-stars with notable roles in recent musical biopics: Toby Kebbell, who played Joy Division manager Rob Gretton in the fantastic 2007 British film Control; and Leo Gregory, who portrayed Rolling Stones co-founder Brian Jones in the 2005 drama Stoned. Holt tells the Hampstead and Highgate Express that he and his partners have raised $2 million to shoot their $4 million caper and hope to roll cameras this summer for a planned February 2009 release. Other projects in the works from production company Quicksilver Films include the futuristic sci-fi thriller The Last Olympian and the thriller No Reason. (FilmStew
