‘Riviera’ Producer Archery Pictures Hires Working Title’s Georgina Gordon-Smith As Development Chief
Archery Pictures, the UK production outfit behind Sky drama Riviera, has hired Working Title Television’s Georgina Gordon-Smith to the newly-created role of head of development.
Gordon-Smith was a development producer at Working Title and before that, worked at United Agents, where she created and ran the talent agent’s book-to-film department.
She will oversee the development of film and television projects for Archery, reporting to founder Kris Thykier and creative director Judy Counihan, who previously oversaw the company’s development slate.
The development team will also be bolstered by the arrival of senior development executive Darren Guthrie, who was a story producer on the second and third season of Riviera. Prior to that, he worked on BBC drama Silent Witness.
Thykier said: “Georgina is a fantastic executive and we look forward to her building our slate and continuing our mission of creating smart commercial film and television drama for national and international audiences.
