Greed tells the story of self-made British billionaire Sir Richard McCreadie, whose retail empire is in crisis. For 30 years he has ruled the world of retail fashion – bringing the high street to the catwalk and the catwalk to the high street – but after a damaging public inquiry, his image is tarnished. To save his reputation, he decides to bounce back with a highly publicized and extravagant party celebrating his 60th birthday on the Greek island of Mykonos. A satire on the grotesque inequality of wealth in the fashion industry, the film sees McCreadie’s rise and fall through the eyes of his biographer, Nick.
The film stars Oscar nominee Steve Coogan as Sir Richard McCreadie, Isla Fisher as Samantha McCreadie, David Mitchell (Peep Show) as Nick, Asa Butterfield (Sex Education) as Finn McCreadie, and Sophie Cookson (Kingsman: The Secret Service) as Lily McCreadie.

The film had its world premiere last September at the 2019 Toronto International Film Festival.
