Natural Nylon hangs by a thread

- Jude Law follows Ewan McGregor and Damon Bryant and leaves the company they co-founded in 1996

Jude Law has left Natural Nylon, the production company he co-founded in 1996 with fellow actors Ewan McGregor and Jonny Lee Miller, and producers Damon Bryant and Bradley Adams.
Law’s decision to resign follows Bryant’s resignation last September and McGregor’s last October. Both left to set up their own production companies, respectively Sonnet Pictures and British United Artists.
Like McGregor, Jude Law was unable to dedicate sufficient time to the development and production of films for Natural Nylon, especially after his international career rocketed after his appearance in The Talented Mr. Ripley.
The only films that the partners managed to put together in seven years were Existenz starring Jude Law, Nora starring Ewan McGregor, the forthcoming To Kill A King, a costume drama about the English Civil War directed by Mike Barker and starring Rupert Everett and Tim Roth, and Richard Kwietniowski’s Owning Mahowny with Minnie Driver and Philip Seymour Hoffman. The latter was just selected for the Panorama section at the nextBerlin Film Festival.
Jude Law’s most recent films include Stephen Spielberg’s A.I. and in Sam Mendes’ The Road To Perdition and he has a starring role in Anthony Minghella’s Cold Mountain - currently in post-production - and in The World Of Tomorrow, opposite Gwyneth Paltrow.
