Kick-Ass producer joins forces with Liza Marshall

 

Kris Thykier is merging his production company PeaPie Films into the newly established Archery Pictures, with Liza Marshall, formerly head of Scott Free London, coming on board as joint managing director.

Marshall, who previously spent five years heading up drama at Channel 4,  established Scott Free London in 2009 and  went on to produce films including Welcome to the Punch starring James McAvoy, Before I Go To Sleep with Nicole Kidman,  and the upcoming Get Santa starring Jim Broadbent. Her television work includes BBC2’s Britain in a Day, Labyrinth and Taboo, an upcoming period drama for BBC1 starring Tom Hardy.

Thykier is currently producing Summer of ’92, directed by Kasper Barfoed; exec-producing Adam Jones, starring Bradley Cooper for The Weinstein Company; and is in post-production on Woman in Gold, starring Helen Mirren and Ryan Reynolds. Upcoming releases, Asif Kapadia’s Ali & Nino, and Stephen Daldry’s Trash, will go out under the PeaPie banner.

Other key executives on the team will include senior development and production executive, Pip Williams, and head of physical production, Mairi Bett, who co-produced Edgar Wright’s The World’s End, Paul Greengrass’ Green Zone and Cary Fukunaga’s Jane Eyre.
