Spy Films​ welcomes EP Liam Benstead

Production company Spy Films announce the appointment of Liam Benstead as Executive Producer / Head of Production. 

In this role, Liam will lead the company’s production operations and oversee the development and execution of new content.

“Liam brings both a fresh enthusiasm and savviness to the company” says Marcus Trulli, Managing Director and EP at Spy Films. “He has a deep understanding of production in our markets, and has a strong track record for producing noteworthy work. We’re excited to have him on our team!”

With over a decade in the Canadian production industry, Benstead has led complex productions and delivered high-quality creative work. He began in post-production with a focus on VFX before moving into production in Vancouver, where he refined his expertise on large-scale service projects. Most recently, as Head of Production, he has overseen domestic and international work, bringing a strong, end-to-end perspective and collaborating closely with top directors and agencies.

“What stood out to me about SPY was the consistency of the work and the intention behind how it’s made,” said Benstead. “SPY has created an environment where strong creative ideas are genuinely supported by strong production, and the harmony of those two things can be felt in everything they make. I’m looking forward to collaborating with a strong team of producers and an exceptional roster of directors to continue growing SPY’s presence in Canada, and international markets.”
