Academy Award-nominated actress Vanessa Kirby (The Crown, Pieces of a Woman) is set to captivate audiences with a raw and electrifying performance in Netflix's latest British thriller, The Night Comes.
Stepping into a role worlds away from Princess Margaret, Kirby portrays a high-end London escort whose life spirals into a vortex of danger and intrigue following the sudden, suspicious death of a client. The film promises a tense, gritty exploration of a world hidden in plain sight.
A Career-Defining Performance
Early reviews from critics suggest Kirby has delivered a career-best performance, showcasing a stunning range of vulnerability and fierce resilience. The role is already generating significant awards season buzz, positioning the film as a must-watch prestige drama on the streaming platform.
More Than Just a Thriller
While the premise guarantees edge-of-your-seat suspense, The Night Comes is also being praised for its nuanced and humanising portrayal of its protagonist. The narrative deftly moves beyond thriller tropes to ask probing questions about power, morality, and survival on the margins of society.
With its gripping plot, A-list talent, and sophisticated London setting, this film is poised to become one of Netflix's most talked-about releases this autumn.
