London – Financing and distribution group Intandem Films chief executive and founder Gary Smith is exiting the company amid a top-tier management shakeup and a change in corporate direction. Smith will be replaced at the top by former Walt Disney high-flier Robert Mitchell, who first arrived at Intandem in 2011 as a non-executive director. The company -- whose sales slate includes Jules Stewart's L.A. county jail drama K-11, actress Kristen Stewart's mother's debut, which was unveiled to buyers during the Marche du Film in Cannes last year -- will focus on its financing and sales activities.

Exclusive: Evan Rachel Wood has landed the female lead in 10 Things I Hate About Life, the film that is being mounted by the producing and directing duo behind the 1999 film 10 Things I Hate About You. That’s writer-director Gil Junger and producer Andrew Lazar, who’s producing with Junger and Intandem Films CEO Gary Smith. The Los Angeles-set romantic comedy isn’t a sequel to the 1999 film that starred Heath Ledger, Julia Stiles and Joseph Gordon-Levitt. Rather, it’s about a young man and woman who meet while each is attempting to commit suicide, and they find in each other some great reasons to keep on living. Production begins shortly in La. Last seen in The Ides Of March, Wood has several films coming up including The Necessary Death Of Charlie Countryman. She’s repped by CAA.

Former paratrooper has co-written The Veteran, a fictional story inspired by the experiences of soldiers returning to civilian life
A former paratrooper who suffered post-traumatic stress disorder after serving in Iraq and Afghanistan has co-written a film exposing the mental wounds and acute desolation endured by many soldiers returning home to civilian life.
Robert Henry Craft, 53, from Broadstairs in Kent, has based the lead character of The Veteran on his own experience of serving on the frontline and "fighting his demons".
The film, which cost £3.1m to shoot, stars 28-year-old Toby Kebbell, a Bafta-nominated actor, and Brian Cox, the Olivier award-winner, who plays an officer in the security services. It is set to spark controversy by focusing on the large number of veterans returning to a life on the streets, or crime and family break-up.
"I had post-traumatic stress disorder and that's from more than 20 years' service," Craft said. His film,...
