Lee & Thompson is delighted to have advised Home Team, a newly launched film and TV production company co-founded by UK producers Dominic Buchanan (BAFTA-winning The End of the F***ing World) and Bennett McGhee (Berlin film Festival’s 2020 FRIPRESCI winner Mogul Mowgli), on an investment by the Calculus Creative Content EIS Fund.

Home Team will operate in the international film and television space, with a focus on the development and production of high-end, wholly inclusive feature films and television series.

The company is aiming to identify and develop under-represented creatives and new voices – primarily, but not restricted to, filmmakers of colour and women filmmakers of all ethnicities – through interactive as well as traditional film and television platforms.

Representing Home Team were Lucy Strauss and Chrissie Edgar in our Corporate team with support from Christos Michaels and Luke Carey in our Film & TV team. Follow the links here to learn more about how we support clients operating in film and television sectors.
