Finally, between urban legend and conspiracy theory, Moonwalk’s hero is an American spy sent to England to meet Stanley Kubrick to convince him to film a fake moon landing to cover the backs of the US in case the Appollo mission failed. Coproduced by Nexus (with Bidibul in Luxembourg and Partizan in France), Moonwalk will be directed by Antoine Bardou-Jacquet and filmed next spring with Ron Perlman and Rupert Grint.

The last selected project is something different. Nexus Factory submitted it, after a long preparation with their co-producers, Bidibull from Luxembourg and Partizan from France. Antoine Bardou-Jacquet, who also wrote the screenplay, will direct the film, but the casting will be anglo-saxon, with Ron Perlman (Hellboy, Sons of Anarchy), Rupert Grint (Ron Weasly in Harry Potter) and Robert Sheehan (known from the series The Misfits and Love/Hate or the trilogy Red Riding adapted from David Peace’s work). The screenplay is rather surprising, as it follows an American agent sent to the United Kingdom to meet … Stanley Kubrick. The time is July 1969 and the CIA is afraid that the Apollo mission will not make it to the moon for landing. They then decide to ask the maker of 2001, A Space Odyssey to film a fake moon landing, just in case… Of course, everything will go haywire on the tones of a soundtrack full of psychedelic, illicit substances and scheming between dangerous gangsters. This crazy film will be shot in April and May, partially in Belgium (9 days). Dame Blanche Genval and Digital Graphics will work on an important part of the post-production. he last selected project is something different.
