Papillon in Malta
Join us on Facebook to get instant updates on all news
​28th November 2016

Last week saw completion of a five day Malta shoot for the feature film PAPILLON at the water tanks of Kalkara and Mtahleb cliffs in Rabat. The producers would like to offer their thanks to the Malta Film Commission and Government of Malta for their extensive support to the production and for their assistance with the specialist facilities offered by the water tanks. They would also like to thank the Maltese crew who worked on the shoot. 

Directed by Michael Noer (Northwest, R) and scripted by Aaron Guzikowski (Prisoners, The Red Road), PAPILLON stars Charlie Hunnam (King Arthur: Legend of the Sword, The Lost City of Z, Crimson Peak) in the title role, with Emmy Award winner Rami Malek (Mr. Robot, Paul Thomas Anderson’s The Master) as Louis Dega. Based on convicted felon and fugitive Henri Charriere’s best-selling 1969 memoir, the film tells of Charriere’s daring escape attempts from the brutal French penal colony of French Guiana where he had been unjustly sentenced for murder. The story was last bought to the big screen in 1973 starring Steve McQueen and Dustin Hoffman.

PAPILLON is a Red Granite Pictures production, with Joey McFarland, Riza Aziz, David Koplan, Ram Bergman and Roger Corbi producing.

IMDB Link: ​www.imdb.com/title/tt5093026/

"I want to say a very big thank you for our Malta experience. We are leaving very happy with the material we shot here." 
- David Koplan, Producer
"Cheers to a great experience in Malta!"
 - Joey Mc Farland, Producer
