Jewson Film is creating an interconnected multiverse of films; partnering established talent with emerging writers and directors. The films will all be helmed by women, about women and will exist within the action and thriller genre.

“We are on a mission to create female driven narratives in the action space. We believe the best stories are the ones which feel highly specific to the central characters. Characters who are authentic, complex human beings with agency. At Jewson Film we want to create action with consequences. Action that advances character. It must earn its place on screen. We want to feel the stakes and the emotion in every frame.” Vicky Jewson
