Home - Faster Horse

Faster Horse Pictures is dedicated to the development, production and financing of captivating Film and Television projects that occupy the intersection of commercial appeal and artistic distinction.

Since 2018, Faster Horse partners Cindy Bond, Doug McKay and Michael Whalen have been passionately committed to bringing to the screen stories that are commercial, impactful, and deeply purposeful.

In this age of limitless options for media production, what truly sets FHP apart is our resolute commitment to nurturing creatives. We're not just a production company; we're a driving force that empowers and equips storytellers to bring to life narratives that resonate boldly, leave a commercial mark, and carry a profound meaning.

Our journey began when we recognized an unfilled niche in the industry, a space where the neglected art of Development could thrive. Over time, FHP has evolved into more than just a company – it's a trusted home where creatives come together to foster the projects they hold closest to their hearts. With us, it's personal. It's about passion, purpose, and the relentless pursuit of stories that matter.
