Official press release for Peacock

Posted on December 21st, 2009 | Posted in Peacock | No Comments »

It seems there is little information out there about Peacock, but I came across this press release and thought I’d post it to our archive.

CILLIAN MURPHY AND ELLEN PAGE TO STAR IN PEACOCK FOR MANDATE PICTURES AND BARRY MENDEL

Los Angeles (February 14, 2008) Golden-Globe nominated actor Cillian Murphy and Academy Award ® nominated actress Ellen Page will star in the psychological thriller Peacock for Mandate Pictures. The movie is named after tiny Peacock, Nebraska where Murphy’s character, a split personality, fools the town into believing his two “alters” are man and wife. Page plays a struggling young mother who holds the key to his past and sparks a battle between the personalities.

Barry Mendel will produce the film. Michael Lander will direct from a script he co-wrote with Ryan Roy, who will co-produce. Mandate Pictures’ head of production Nicole Brown will executive produce along with Nathan Kahane. “We are so excited to be working with this talented group of artists and this incredibly original project,” stated Kahane who most recently worked with Page on Juno.

“Peacock stunned me as a script from start to finish. It offers an incredible challenge to an actor — one I couldn’t turn down.” said Murphy. Page added, “This is one of the boldest screenplays I’ve come across in my albeit short career, it’s a character and story I can throw myself into and exactly the type of movie I love to be a part of.”
