The latest superhero film from the Marvel stable, Iron Man, is set for worldwide release at the end of April. Starring Robert Downey Jr (Zodiac, Chaplin) and Gwyneth Paltrow (Shakespeare In Love, Sylvia) it tells the story of a wealthy industrialist who invents a fabulous body armour to fight evil. Directed by Jon Favreau (Elf), previews have created a major buzz that the film has the potential to be a runaway early summer hit.

Silva Screen will release the original soundtrack worldwide (excl N. America) in May. Composed by Ramin Djawadi (Prison Break, Blade Trinity) the powerful score also includes a bonus track from US thrashers Suicidal Tendencies

Writer/director/actor Peter Howitt made his film breakthrough with his international hit Sliding Doors, a film now rightly classified as a romantic comedy cinema classic. Major productions soon followed including the worldwide box office hit, James Bond spoof, Johnny English which starred Rowan Atkinson. He returns to UK screens on May 23rd with the release of Dangerous Parking, the screen adaptation of Stuart Browne’s cult novel about wastrel film director Noah Arkwright, a user and abuser who aims to destroy the addictions that haunt him. Howitt directed, took the lead role and wrote the screenplay for what is set to be one of the most talked about British films released this year.

Co-starring Saffron Burrows, Sean Pertwee and Tom Conti, this explosive tragi-comedy has already scored at the Tokyo International Film Festival where Howitt was acclaimed as best director.

Silva Screen has also been heavily involved in this project as music supervisors, sourcing and clearing a wide range of material ranging from Jim Croce to Elastica and includes a Silva Screen recording – Who Do You Love? performed by Lenny White and featuring soul diva Chaka Khan.
