Writer/producer Trevor Howis is assembling a new creative and international sales team for his thriller Weekend Warriors.
Howis has parted company with David Hannay and the UK.s The Spice Factory, who were to co-produce the film with his firm Vincero Productions.
As a result, director Brian Trenchard-Smith is no longer involved. In a related move, Howis has resigned as head of development for David Hannay Productions after more than three years.
Howis' screenplay is set in a remote forest valley where an inexperienced junior officer endeavours to save his men and his brother from his battle-hardened psychopathic former mentor who is hell bent on revenge.
.Ultimately we have decided it's better for us and our project to pursue other opportunities on our own and move away from the .Ozploitation. brand, . Howis told If.
.It is the toughest decision I have ever had to make but I feel it's the right one.
