THE ROYAL STUNT
An Investigative Art Forgery Documentary
Giampiero Ambrosi is a writer, investigative reporter, and producer of documentary films. He produced The Royal Stunt, a major feature documentary about the Prince Charles Royal Art Collection Scandal at Dumfries House. Based on an almost three year investigation by Ambrosi and Academy Award nominated director, Kief Davidson, the film is due to be released in early 2025 with partners MRC Entertainment, the leading independent entertainment studio behind some of the world’s most iconic, award-winning, and prestigious television series, films, and documentaries. Read the true, never-before-told, behind the scenes story of my investigation into the James Stunt – King Charles art forgery scandal.
Giampiero says, “In 2019 art forger, Tony Tetro, showed me three photos he had secretly taken of curious document fragments – an art loan between eccentric purported billionaire, James Stunt and Prince Charles. Three years and a lot of undercover investigation later, we were able to unearth a massive art forgery scandal. Now, we’re almost ready to release our film, The Royal Stunt, with academy award nominated, director Kief Davidson, and partners MRC Entertainment, scored by Marco Beltrami and Dennis Smith. It’s a crazy story and a wild ride. Can’t wait to share more details soon.”
