Lynne Ramsay boards rehab thriller I Feel Fine

Dominic West (Pride), David Tennant (What We Did On Our Holiday) and Stacy Martin (Nymphomaniac) are to star in Glasgow-set drama-thriller I Feel Fine, which writer-director Lynne Ramsay and Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy producer Robyn Slovo are executive-producing.

I Feel Fine marks the directorial debut of established casting agent Des Hamilton, who has cast films including Nymphomaniac, Only God Forgives and This is England.

The script comes from Hamilton and Amber Trentham. Producers are casting agent Lara Manwaring for Buffalo Films and Suzanne Reid (What We Did On Our Holiday) for Capricorn Films.

Set in the unforgiving streets of 1980s Glasgow the film will chart the story of teenager Jonny White who becomes embroiled in crime and drug addiction.

When a bounty is placed on his head for a crime he didn’t commit, White must get to the safe haven of rehab in order to stay alive.

Casting is underway in Glasgow to find the male lead.

Billy Boyd, Carice Van Houten, Sharleen Spiteri and Gary Lewis are attached to the project, which is aiming to shoot in October 2015.

Development backers include Creative Scotland and the BFI.
