BRITISH directors are shooting a film about the live of Severiano 'Seve' Ballesteros, the legendary Spanish golfer who lost his battle against cancer last year.
Filming will start on Monday on location in the northern coastal region of Cantabria (in Santander, Comillas and Pedreña) and the production will première in London and in Spain in April 2014.
It will feature young actor José Luis Gutiérrez as Seve, one of the best golfers in history, and feature the early years of his life, and 2012 Gaudí Award winner María Molins as Carmen, Seve's mother.
Producer Stephen Evans, who was behind the successful Peter's friends – starring Stephen Fry in a black comedy about a house party called by Peter who has a life-changing secret to reveal – Much ado about nothing, and Henry V – will be working on the film, Seve, along with director John Paul Davidson and script-writer Tom Hodgson.
