Shaan pens screenplay for 'Mission 5'
23 October, 2014
Shaan's upcoming film, Mission 5, will entice his fans not only because the star will be seen in front of the camera, but also because he's penning its screenplay.
Tentatively titled Mission 5, the film is produced by Shiny Toy Guns (STG) in collaboration with Shaan's Riaz Shahid Films (RSF).
The film will be directed by Asad ul Haq of STG, with BAFTA winning Director of Photography, Nicholas D. Knowland of Jinnah fame as the DoP, and Ali Murtaza of STG is the producer. Veteran stylist Nabila is the official styling partner.
Hollywood actor Farhan Tahir of Iron Man and Star Trek fame will feature as the main antagonist in Mission 5.
Known for his stylish visuals and great attention to detail, Asad ul Haq brings years of experience to his cinematic directorial debut.
“My dad once told me long time ago that a story will tell itself, when it’s ready. Until the last few months I assumed that it wasn’t ready, but suddenly I find myself thinking, dreaming about the story 24/7. I guess it's finally ready to be told,” said Haq.
Speaking about his first cinematic venture as a producer, Murtaza said: "I am thrilled and excited to see this dream materialise and look at many more to follow in the years to come. Pakistani film features should compete with international cinema and provide quality entertainment to the people while developing stars, writers, directors and associated industries. This category has immense potential."
Mission 5 will go into production by November 2014 and the film is slated to release on Eidul Fitr in 2015.
End.
