Spud is a 2010 South African comedy-drama film written and directed by Donovan Marsh, based on the novel of the same name by John van de Ruit. The film stars Troye Sivan as the title character, alongside John Cleese, Jason Cope and Tanit Phoenix. It was released in South Africa on 3 December 2010.
Production
The film is entirely privately financed by South African investors, giving the filmmakers full creative control.
Auditioning began in August 2009 and took place in Durban, Pietermaritzburg, Cape Town, Johannesburg, and Grahamstown. Audition videos were also accepted via YouTube. Hundreds of boys were auditioned for the role of Spud. Producer Ross Garland's uncle saw South-African born Australian actor Troye Sivan on Australian television and wrote to Garland about him.
The filmmakers initially thought Jason Cope would be too young to play Sparerib but Garland said he "turns into a nasty housemaster as soon as he steps on set." Cope based his performance on a vice principal he once had.
Filming commenced on 8 March 2010 at the Michaelhouse boarding school in KwaZulu-Natal, South Africa and ended on 18 April 2010.
