AUTHOR TERRY COOPER TAKES HIS 10 PER CENT!

Kangazang! author Terry Cooper does more than just write. As well as being an artist, graphic designer, rapper and Captain Jack Sparrow lookalike he also puts his talents to acting. Recently, Terry starred in the short film 10 PER CENT by up and coming filmmaker Chris Bevan.

10 PER CENT is a tale of deception and double-crossing in a criminal underworld. Veteran professional thief 'Bad' Eddie Goodman (played by Terry) and his young accomplice Billy take on a dangerous job – to rob powerful ganglord Mr Zhang of £3 million and a huge stash of cocaine. But there is little loyalty among thieves and thugs and the prize is too tempting for anyone to play by the rules. Action, dark humour and tension abound in this short story of gangsters, gunplay and greed.

AUTHOR TERRY IN HIS LATEST ACTING ROLE

 

Kangazang! author Terry Cooper has just completed filming low-budget gangster movie '10 Per Cent'.

Terry plays 'Bad' Eddie Goodman, a small-time entrepreneurial robber, who ends up in a spot of bother after he is contracted to rip off a den of unsavoury villains. Terry isn't unfamiliar with acting having recently acted in a sci-fi short called 'The Halycon' filmed in Leeds (you can watch a trailer here). He also starred in the award-winning short film 'Frankly' last year and previously as an extra on 'Torchwood' and the feature film 'Outlaw' (2007).

In this new role, Terry really enjoyed playing his part in this gritty drama (rated 15 for violence and adult language) which features humour, stunts, violence and suspense. 10 Per Cent, written and directed by Cardiff-based film student Chris Bevan, is currently in post-production and will be released in the summer at The University Of South Wales.
