Heading into production this autumn, the UK film is a contemporary update in which the character of Oliver is reinvented as a streetwise artist living on the streets of day London. A chance encounter with a gang of grifters led by the charismatic Dodge sees Twist caught up in a high stakes heist to steal a priceless painting for master thief, Fagin , and his psychopathic business partner, Sikes . Drameh will play Batesey, Simnett will play Red and Walliams will play Losberne.
The film will be made available on Comcast-owned Euro broadcaster Sky’s UK movie platform Sky Cinema on the same day as a planned limited theatrical release in the market via Altitude.
