Currently shooting on location in and around London, the film picks up with a mysterious thief, who is presented with an opportunity to take down the exclusive Hatton Garden Vault just days after leaving prison. It’s an old school job, requiring old school skills. With real life twists and turns as though written for a movie, The Hatton Garden Job follows our convict recruiting a team of veteran British criminals all eager for one final chance at glory. Together they must stay ahead of the law, dodge hired mercenaries and make deals with the head of the Hungarian mafia.

Commenting on the company’s latest acquisition Signature Entertainment owner and CEO, Marc Goldberg, said: “We are delighted to be distributing the first film of this extraordinary story that has continued to captivate the public at every turn. Audiences can look forward to watching the biggest burglary in English history play out on screens later this year.”
