Three Folks Pictures was founded by Will Canon. Will is best known for his award-winning feature film debut Brotherhood which won Audience Awards at South By Southwest, The Dallas International Film Festival, and was nominated for a Gotham Award. The New York Times selected Brotherhood as a Critic’s Pick and Variety called it, “Ingeniously constructed and propulsively paced.”
Will then went on to make his next feature Demonic, starring Frank Grillo and Maria Bello, for producer James Wan and Dimension films. Flickering Myth said, “Demonic may just be one of the best horror films released this year.” The Guardian said, “The final twist is sick fun.”
Next, Will wrote Target Churchill for the Solution Entertainment Group about Winston Churchill’s trip to the United States in 1946 to give his famed Iron Curtain speech. Will then set about development on the fact-based heist thriller, Majoring In Crime for Gold Circle Films based on the Vanity Fair article of the same name, as well as the southern-thriller Down South with Katie Holmes, based on this original script. Will is an honors graduate of New York University’s film program.
