GOLDEN Globe-winner Emma Corrin and fellow star Jack Lowden have sent fans into a frenzy after being spotted filming a high-stakes new project on the streets of the capital.
The actors were deep in character, shooting scenes for the eagerly awaited Cold War-era spy thriller, 'Lions'. Corrin, famed for their portrayal of Princess Diana in Netflix's 'The Crown', was almost unrecognisable in a period-accurate brunette bob wig and a classic trench coat.
Meanwhile, Jack Lowden, known for his roles in 'Slow Horses' and 'Dunkirk', cut a sharp figure in a sophisticated three-piece suit, perfectly capturing the essence of the espionage genre.
A Glimpse into the Gripping Plot of 'Lions'
The film, directed by the acclaimed Hugo Blick, is set against the tense backdrop of the 1980s Cold War. It follows the story of two brothers, portrayed by Lowden and Harris Dickinson, who find themselves on opposing sides of a dangerous MI6 operation.
On-set photos captured a particularly dramatic moment between Corrin and Lowden's characters, suggesting a complex and intriguing relationship that will be central to the plot. The pair were seen engaged in what appeared to be a serious and clandestine conversation, adding to the mystery surrounding the film's narrative.
Star-Studded Cast and Production
'Lions' boasts an impressive supporting cast, including the legendary Samantha Morton and the versatile Alessandro Nivola. The project is a major production for the BBC and is expected to be a significant awards contender upon its release.
The attention to detail in the costumes and setting immediately transports viewers back to the shadowy world of 1980s espionage, promising a visually stunning and authentic cinematic experience.
With such a compelling premise and a powerhouse cast, 'Lions' is already shaping up to be one of the most must-see British films of the coming year.
