Monster Butler, set to begin production this week in Scotland. According to The Hollywood Reporter, the feature "tells the true story of Roy Fontaine, aka Archibald Hall (Malcolm McDowell). Fontaine was a bisexual jewel thief/con man/serial killer and the movie will tell of his personal descent into darkness and his eventual capture."

Quote:
Lynch will play Fiona Carrick-Smith, who is intrigued by her upper class family’s new and seemingly all-knowing butler. Seeing him as an older, wiser confidant, she confesses her misgivings for her upcoming marriage and her longing for dangerous excitement. She soon acts on her desired with butler, acts of reckless behaviour that lead to betrayal and tragedy.
Quote:
Oldman will portray Wiggy, a taxidermist with anger issues and business on the side who partners with Fontaine on a number of crimes before things get heavy.
The film also stars Dominic Monaghan and Joanne Whalley, and has no current set release date.
