Restauranteering is not a profession that should be taken lightly. Indeed, it's less of a job and more of a way of life for Adam Jones, who has wanted to become the greatest chef the world has ever seen since as long as he can remember. He was just 16-years-old when he left school to go to Paris and achieve his dream; becoming a Michelin star chef infamous across the Parisian culinary scene. But his rise to success came much too soon, and it wasn't long before his dream began to crumble around him, beaten by a life of drugs, violence, and volatile behaviour. With many of his opponents thinking him dead, he returns to London a new man to reignite his passion, earn a third Michelin star, and open the best restaurant in the world. All he needs is a talented team behind him, who is willing to give him the benefit of the doubt.
'Burnt' is a thrilling drama about how such a prestigious profession can become embroiled in the most dangerous of scandals. It has been directed by multi-Primetime Emmy winner John Wells ('Shameless', 'August: Osage County', 'The Company Men') and written by Oscar nominated Steven Knight ('Peaky Blinders', 'Seventh Son', 'Eastern Promises'), and it is set to be released in cinemas on October 16th 2015.
