Double film score for award winning Michael Farris-Smith
Posted on 5th June, 2023

We are extremely excited to announce that not one but two books from award-winning author Michael Farris-Smith are due to be released as movies this autumn; The Fighter and Desperation Road.
The Fighter, now filmed as Rumble Through the Dark, is the latest film from directing duo Graham and Parker Phillips (The Bygone), starring Aaron Eckhart And Bella Thorne.
Desperation Road is directed by the exciting young director, Nadine Crocker and will star Mel Gibson & Garrett Hedlund as father and son.
Both books have received critical acclaim and we couldn’t be happier that people will soon be able to discover Michael’s incredibly raw and powerful stories on the big screen.
Read them first!
