Also starring Charlotte Rampling, Jonathan Rhys Meyers and Malcolm McDowell, I’LL SLEEP WHEN I’M DEAD is based on an original screenplay by award-winning writer Trevor Preston and is produced by Mike Kaplan and Michael Corrente, with Roger Marino as executive producer. Jamie Foreman, Ken Stott and the legendary Sylvia Syms are featured in key supporting roles. Paramount Classics is distributing the Revere Pictures-Seven Arts presentation in the United States.
