    Scott Weintrob’s "Paradox Effect"
    LOS ANGELES -- (SPW) --

    A masterful cinematic journey into the realms of suspense and emotion, Emmy®-nominated Scott Weintrob presents a compelling tale featuring an ensemble cast, including Harvey Keitel, Olga Kurylenko, and Oliver Trevena. 

    Produced by Wonder Film and ILBE, this action-packed film was introduced by the illustrious actor Gerard Butler on Sunday and received resounding acclaim, many hailing Weintrob's directorial prowess and the cast’s captivating performance. 

    Paradox Effect delves into the story of Karina (Kurylenko) as she confronts the formidable gangster Silvio (Keitel) in a desperate mission to rescue her abducted daughter, Lucy. 

    Covek, portrayed by Oliver Trevena, was awarded Breakout Actor of the Year. His performance as a compromised Interpol agent adds complexity to the film's gripping storyline.

    Andrea Iervolino, CEO of the production company ILBE, expressed his pride in Scott's contribution, stating, "Scott's visionary work and direction was pivotal in bringing the film's depth and dynamism to life."

    With a prolific career spanning acclaimed works in music videos, advertisement and documentaries (HOME for Apple+ and Rihanna’s "Savage x Fenty” for Amazon), Weintrob has a knack for captivating audiences. Known for pushing creative boundaries, he has recently partnered with Rakish for commercial representation, and his latest creative endeavor, the television docu-series To The Edge, starring Orlando Bloom, is coming out soon on Peacock.

    Co-founder of Rakish, Preston Garret, extolled Weintrob's talents, remarking, "Scott is a transformative storyteller who continually pushes the boundaries of cinematic artistry. Paradox Effect firmly establishes his position as a trailblazer in impactful cinema."

    Segun Akinola Scores BBC’s New Landmark Natural History Series “Kingdom”

    Wednesday, October 15, 2025
    "Kingdom"

    Acclaimed composer Segun Akinola has composed the original score for the BBC Studios Natural History Unit’s latest series, Kingdom, bringing a rich, emotionally resonant soundscape to the breathtaking visuals of the natural world.

    Akinola, known for his bold, cinematic compositions, describes working on Kingdom as an exciting career highlight. 

    “Working with the world-class BBC Studios Natural History Unit on Kingdom has been a real joy,” Akinola said. “What made it extra special was going to record singers and musicians in Zambia, then combining their efforts with the talents of the BBC National Orchestra of Wales and other fantastic musicians. I can’t wait for everyone to hear the results!”

    Blending traditional Zambian musical elements with orchestral grandeur, Akinola’s score reflects the beauty, drama, and cultural richness of the series. His work captures not only the majesty of nature but also the deep connection between the landscape and the animal families who call it home. 

    Kingdom is set to premiere on [insert broadcast date if available] on BBC One and iPlayer, and will also be available internationally via BBC Studios.
