Anything can happen in a New York minute.
Memoirs From the Streets of New York is a crime/heist feature built around a major downtown Manhattan robbery that sends five very different lives crashing into one another.
A mob-connected hustler.
An aspiring singer.
A rising fighter.
A music-industry operator with a criminal past.
A hardened detective.
From the Lower East Side to Bensonhurst, their stories become connected through ambition, loyalty, desperation, betrayal, organized crime, music, and the consequences of one major heist.
Designed as more than a single feature, Memoirs From the Streets of New York introduces an interconnected New York crime world capable of expanding through sequels, prequels, character spin-offs, episodic television or streaming content, narrative podcasts, vertical storytelling, and other formats.
The project is in late-stage development with a completed screenplay, established character and franchise architecture, pitch materials, financing framework, secured New York locations, and multiple attachments already in place in front of and behind the camera. The project has also generated interest from recognizable talent associated with the crime-film and television space.
LCP Studios is currently focused on completing the final pieces of the package, including the right major-name attachment, additional production financing and co-financing, co-production relationships, sales representation, and domestic and international distribution.
With those final elements in place, the project is positioned to move rapidly toward production.
