Based on the character from the 007 films and books, the story introduces Olivia Mansfield, a young woman entering the world of espionage in 1940’s Britain. She will one day rise through the ranks to become the head of the largest Secret Intelligence Service in the country, MI6. An orphan when we first meet her, Olivia subsequently becomes adopted into a special academy where she trains relentlessly to ensure the protection of her country while Nazi Germany ravages their way across Europe. Through the hardships and obstacles, she finds herself faced with a dark memory from her past that may just threaten the entire agency and the world itself.

In the Pilot episode, after taking down a new right wing, supremacist group, MI5 agent Olivia Mansfield has earned her place as the world’s first double O agent, much to the disdain of her male peers. With Cold War Britain under constant threat, her role will be to go deep into the dark world of narcissistic enemies who seek world domination and uncover the truth behind an organization know only as Spectre. Olivia must go head to head with the religious fanatic Angelos. Born with a rare shoulder deformity, he believes he was born half angel who must build an army for the righteous to cleanse the world. Olivia finds herself fighting scores of loyal followers and a cult leader with almost inhuman skills in manipulation.

Will she take down this dangerous group or will a battle of the minds with Angelos prove too much for the intrepid young spy?

After years of planning and intense collaborations, we are excited to move forward with the crowdfunding stage!

 

WHO’S GOING TO MAKE IT?

Pre-production will be handled in the US, while all production will take place on-site in the UK. With all of the early and essential components of the project underway, we aim to begin the Pilot episode’s principal photography by the beginning of Fall 2023.

The character of ‘M’ will be played by Rose Emanuel, other cast and crew are in currently in development.

 

WHAT’S IT GOING TO LOOK LIKE?

Our Director’s vision is modeled after movies/shows like Skyfall, Agent Carter, Hawkeye, and Bridge of Spies. We’d like to match the storytelling and production value that you would expect in a typical Bond movie, with the modern cinematic quality of Marvel releases.

 

In exchange for your aid, we are offering various tiers of rewards which range from Trainee Operative (Lowest) to ‘M’ (Highest). Any and all contributions matter, as we are deeply grateful for you taking the time to provide us with a unique opportunity to create something brand new and fresh to the world of Bond.

In the event that our initial goal is not reached, that will mean less funding, which will ultimately delay production. However, if we are to achieve utmost quality, we will ensure that we take your dollar as far as possible. In reality, that could mean a leaner crew, consolidated locations/sets, and an extended release date, just to name a few possibilities.
