Katcy Stephan Tom Holland has signed a producing deal with Sony Pictures under his newly-launched Billy17 banner, alongside Harry Holland and Will South.

The trio will kick off their partnership with an original project they have been developing together, titled “Burnt,” with Academy Award winner Rodney Rothman (“Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse”) set to write the screenplay.

Plot details are being kept under wraps, but the film is envisioned as a starring vehicle for Tom Holland. Also on their slate to produce with Sony Pictures is an adaptation of Graeme Simsion’s bestselling novel “The Rosie Project” for TriStar Pictures, which Matt Tolmach and Michael Costigan, from Jason Bateman’s Aggregate Films banner, are also producing.

In addition, the trio and Amy Pascal will produce an adaptation of Teddy Wayne’s recently published novel, “The Winner,” which will also serve as a Holland-starring project. “I’ve had an incredibly happy and successful relationship with Sony Pictures for almost a decade, so they felt like the perfect partner to launch our production company with,” Tom Holland said. “It’s been an ambition of mine to take this step for some time now, and we’re incredibly excited to bring entertaining, and rewatchable movies to the big screen.
