Vertigo Films


In 2002, Vertigo Films was created by producers Allan Niblo (producer of Human Traffic and South West 9), James Richardson (producer of Kiss Kiss (Bang Bang)), director Nick Love (screenwriter and, prior to company formation, director of Goodbye Charlie Bright and The Football Factory), distributor Rupert Preston (distributor of Chopper, Chasing Amy and Bride of Chucky, among others), and entrepreneur Rob Morgan. The company was formed for the express purpose of distributing and producing two films, The Football Factory and It's All Gone Pete Tong; its current stated goal is to produce and distribute four films per year
2010 was a sensational year for Vertigo with Europe's first 3D live action movie, STREETDANCE 3D, entering the UK Box Office charts at No.1 beating Disney's Prince of Persia and becoming one of the most successful UK independent films of all time as it opened around the world. In addition, Vertigo's co-production AJAMI was nominated for an Oscar for Best Foreign Film and its genre busting MONSTERS received exceptional buzz, acclaim and a host of awards including three British Independent Film Awards.

In 2011 Vertigo produced and released a 3D feature film of the children's franchise HORRID HENRY which became a box office hit taking £6.5M and teamed up with HAMMER Films to produce WAKEWOOD which became one of the best reviewed horror films in years.

Films in production in 2011 include a big screen adaptation of the much anticipated THE SWEENEY, written and directed by Nick Love and starring Ray Winstone and Plan B as the infamous Regan and Carter. STREETDANCE 2 from the same team that brought you the original with glitzy European locations and the best dancers in the world. And an English language re-make of Nicolas Winding Refn's seminal PUSHER film.

In addition to its production and distribution activity, Vertigo also owns The Post Republic, a state of the art post production company based in Berlin and is a partner in Protagonist Pictures, the international sales company joint venture with Film Four and Ingenious Media. Earlier this year, with LA based 3D experts Paradise FX, Vertigo set up PFXE, Europe's most experienced 3D facilities company.
