Tom Brittney & Oliver Powell Launches ‘Wild Nest Pictures,’ WWI TV Series in Works

‘Greyhound’ Star Tom Brittney & ‘Devs’ Actor Oliver Powell Launch Wild Nest Pictures, Team With ‘Patrick Melrose’ Producer For WWI TV Series

Grantchester actor Tom Brittney, who will next be seen alongside Tom Hanks in WWII war movie Greyhound, has partnered with actor and writer Oliver Powell (Devs) to form TV and film production company Wild Nest Pictures.

‘Grantchester’ and ‘Greyhound’ star Tom Brittney and ‘Devs’ Actor and writer Oliver Powell has launched a TV and film production company ‘Wild Nest Pictures’.

Deadline has reported that the London-based new company has acquired the rights to The Mayfair 100 novels, penned by Lynn Brittney.
The new born company has teamed with Patrick Melrose outfit Little Island Productions to develop the TV adaptation for the Novel. Set in World War I, the books explore a covert female task force who uncover a series of dark and gruesome crimes in London.

Tom Brittney said: “I’ve been keen to contribute more directly to the constantly evolving landscape of TV and film for some time. Wild Nest is my way to do that. Ollie and I have created the company to bring untold stories to the screen from fresh and dynamic perspectives. We’re aiming to champion brave storytellers telling character driven narratives. We felt an adaptation of my mum’s brilliant book series, Mayfair 100, was the perfect launch for the company. An opportunity to take a period of history that people may know, but take it in a dark, unique and unseen direction.”

Tom Brittney will next be seen alongside Tom Hanks in WWII war movie ‘Greyhound’ which will premiere on July 10 on Apple TV+
