Forbes resident, Dane Millerd celebrates the success of new film Avarice.
Forbes resident, Dane Millerd is celebrating a massive success after first securing a streaming deal with US channel Showtime and now Paramount Plus for his film Avarice.
Millerd, who helmed and produced There’s Something In The Pilliga in 2015, also co-wrote Avarice and is an Associate Producer on the project.
“The script was penned by Adam Enslow, Andrew Slattery, John V Soto, and myself and was originally birthed from a draft of another script I had written in 2015,” Dane said.
“John read it, liked it and asked if we could develop it further, now we have Avarice.”
On the back of the streaming deals, the film now ranks in the top 40 worldwide movies on Amazon Prime.
“It’s great to see my hard work pay off. This industry isn’t easy to crack and can be brutal and there are no guarantees especially if you don’t put in the work,” Dane said.
As for what’s next, Millerd remained relatively tight lipped but hinted at a series on infamous female killer Katherine Knight.
“It’s a project many know I’ve been working on behind the scenes for a while and now we just about have everything and everyone in place to develop and produce this series,” he said.
