Blake and Dylan Ritson

The Ritson brothers have attracted a host of starry names to their short films. Their latest, Love Hate, premiered at the Edinburgh International Film Festival. Starring Ben Whishaw and Hayley Atwell, it is a wickedly amusing comedy, described by Kudos Pictures’ head of development Ed Clarke as demonstrating “a distinctive voice, and [that they] aren’t afraid to do something a little different.” Now in post-production with the short Good Boy, starring Jessica Hynes and Reece Shearsmith, the Ritsons are developing film and TV projects with their regular producer Scott Jacobson.

They include relationship comedy Eeny Meeny with Company Pictures and BBC Films, surreal sexual thriller Shuteye with Kudos Pictures and two projects with Origin Pictures.
