"House of the Dragon" actor Fabien Frankel will star in and co-produce "Love Unlimited," a short drama marking the directorial debut of fellow actor Olivier Huband. The project sees Frankel, best known for playing Ser Criston Cole, move into producing for the first time via MarcelMonique Pictures, the banner he runs with his brother Max Mark Frankel, underlining his ambitions beyond acting.

The short follows two old friends, Max (Frankel) and Gabriel (Huband), as they unknowingly spend their final four days together at Max's house in the South of France, exploring themes of male intimacy, grief and love. Max Mark Frankel will lead-produce, while Huband produces alongside his sister Zara Huband under Boneyard Films, with Konstantin Mazov as cinematographer and French outfit All In Films assisting production. Filming begins in September in the Pyrenees.
