Campaign

Strike were thrilled to break the news that Danny Boyle will be exec producing this title starring a talented British cast. Newly confirmed cast members included Jason Isaacs (Harry Potter series), My Best Friend’s Wedding), Suki Waterhouse (Assassination Nation, Charlie Says) and Thomas Turgoose (This is England). We also announced that Ewen Bremner (Trainspotting, T2, Wonder Woman, Black Hawk Down) will be bringing his unquestionable talent to the lead role of Alan McGee.

Our team designed an informative and eye catching press release to announce Danny Boyle and new cast member’s involvement with the title. As a result, thirty pieces of coverage were achieved in influential publications such as Variety, The Hollywood Reporter, NME and Deadline within the first two hours of the press release being sent out. Strike also released First Look images of Ewen Bremner as Alan McGee, securing coverage in Variety, Deadline, Yahoo, Clash, Uncut and The Scotsman.

Following from this, Strike handled Unit Publicity for the film, securing interviews with the director, Nick Moran, Alan McGee, Ewen Bremner and other members of the cast with BBC News, NME, The Guardian, Total Film and HeyUGuys.

By 2020, Strike has accumulated over 170 pieces of unique coverage across Broadcast, Print and Onlines.
