In recent years, the agency’s talent have been responsible for the cinematography of films such as Edward Berger’s “Conclave” (Stéphane Fontaine), Magnus von Horn’s “The Girl With the Needle” (Michal Dymek) and Andrey Zvyagintsev’s “Minotaur” (Mikhail Krichman).

Berg, managing director and agent at Cosmic Talents, said, “The U.K. market is exceptionally creative. Its directors and the stories they tell are a constant source of inspiration. By opening this office, we want to strengthen our presence in the U.K. and establish a deeper connection with this vibrant creative community.

“Having a local representative brings greater spontaneity to our relationships and allows us to build meaningful connections with directors, clients and production partners.

“With a background in production, Gabrielle has a strong understanding of the realities and challenges of producing in the U.K. Her experience enables her to bridge creative ambitions with the practical demands of production, making her ideally positioned to support projects in this market.”

De Cevins said, “I’m delighted to be joining a team with such a strong commitment to artistic vision. Cosmic has built an exceptional roster over the years. I’m looking forward to helping production find the right creative partners for their projects, and to championing Cosmic talents within the U.K. market.”
