Four Boys Films was founded in 2001 by actors David Hunt and Patricia Heaton.

In its first year, the company co-produced the Kenneth Lonergan play This Is Our Youth in London's West End, followed by a series of teleplays And So To Bedlam, a co-production with the BBC and 1A Films.

Patricia and David also developed, produced and starred in the romantic comedy, The Engagement Ring, a 2 hour movie for TV which aired on TNT in December of 2005.

Hunt has made his directing debut with the documentary feature film, The Bituminous Coal Queens of Pennsylvania, which won a Crystal Heart Award® at the recent Heartland Film Festival and is currently in negotiations for distribution.

Four Boys Films has a number of other projects in development, in theatre, television and film both here and in the UK and also has an overall development deal with ABC/Touchstone.
