George Kallis has been hired to score the upcoming comedy Gutterbee. The film marks the second directorial effort of Danish actor Ulrich Thomsen and stars Antony Starr, Ewen Bremner, W. Earl Brown, Pia Mechler, Joshua Harto, Clark Middleton, Chance Kelly and Garret Williams. The movie follows two hopeless dreamers in small-town America who want to open the ultimate German sausage restaurant. Thomsen is also producing the project with Henrik Puggaard. Gutterbee is currently in post-production and is expected top premiere later this year.
Kallis (The Black Prince, Albion: The Enchanted Stallion, 93 Days, The Last Knight) also continues his collaboration with Kremlin Films (Gagarin: First in Space) with the biographical sports drama Lev Yashin. The film directed by Vasily Chiginsky tells the personal story of the superstar goalkeeper, famously known as the ‘Black Spider’, who is the only goalkeeper in the history of football (soccer) to receive the Ballon d’Or Award. Oleg Kapanets and Dmitry Murin are producing the movie, which is expected to be released in Russian theaters later this year.
As previously reported, Kallis has also recently scored the historical drama Cliffs of Freedom, which will be released this year. A soundtrack album featuring the composer’s score will be announced soon.
