“There are a lot of horror films out there that are nasty, but what's nasty isn't…” — James Watkins

A lot of the best stories are now being told on television.

The opportunity to be able to tell long-form character stories is something that TV affords and is therefore a terrain that a lot of filmmakers are interested in exploring.

Filming in India was very special. The chaos, the noise, and the sensory overload was all really wonderful. It was a new world to me, and being able to capture that was incredible.

We want 'McMafia' to be a tense gangster story but also a family story. It's a collusion of those two worlds.
