James Flynn, MD and cofounder at Octagon Films, explains how Ireland’s production industry has benefitted from the drift of talent from movies to TV, as well as local tax incentives.
Flynn offers advice to producers looking to work with networks in the US where he forged numerous links through Octagon, working on Penny Dreadful for Showtime and Vikings for History. He also reveals plans for a US remake of Irish drama Love/Hate.
