SYNOPSIS: A stressed out hitman in search of the good life retires to a village in Wales to open a bakery. But he soon discovers you can’t shake off the past that easily. With villagers showing distinctly homicidal tendencies, and his former associates hot on his trail, this bucolic dream is fast turning into a nightmare.

PERSONAL STATEMENT: Shakespeare’s Cake has been in development for four years now, and Moonstone has played a vital role in that process. Since the Lab, the project hasn’t stopped moving forward, with involvement from Sgrîn, Picture Farm and Spitfire Pictures. Shooting is scheduled for early 2004. Gareth will be directing. The lead role will be played by Damian Lewis (Band of Brothers, The Forsyte Saga, Dreamcatcher).
