Hey Lovelies, 

So I am in a lesson now, but I will try and blog as much as I can! I promise you all! However if it does get a bit slow I want to give you some fun news first lovelies! 

Starting with this news that photography has begun on the film, ‘Denial’, starring Rachel Weisz, Tom Wilkinson, Timothy Spall, Andrew Scott, Caren Pistorius, Jack Lowden, Alex Jennings and Harriet Walter. The film follows the story of David Irving and the battle in which Lipstadt went under to uncover the truth. 

Speaking about the film, producers Gary Foster and Russ Krasnoff said: “We are ecstatic that these talented artists have come together to tell the important story of DENIAL.  Mick and this tremendous cast will bring David Hare’s adaptation of Deborah’s story to life in an extraordinary way.”

While, director Mick Jackson added: “This is a vitally important movie which needs to be made now.  I’m thrilled to be working with such an amazing cast and delighted they’ll be bringing all their energy and passion to making the film what it truly is – a lesson for our times.”

As well as this, the morning marked the announcement that Lucasfilm and the GREAT Britain campaign would be coming together to celebrate the British talent within the new Star Wars franchise film due out on the 17th December. 



With stars such as Sir Richard Branson, Jamie Oliver and Jessica Ennis-Hill being involved in the videos, each video will work at looking at the films legacy and the impact it will have on future generations. 

Speaking about the partnership, Lucasfilm President and Star Wars: The Force Awakens Producer, Kathleen Kennedy said: “Britain is the home of Star Wars. Returning to the UK and setting up at Pinewood felt like a kind of homecoming, especially with the generations of crew members who go back to the early days of the Star Wars saga. It’s been wonderful to see this new generation drafting off that classic sensibility while working on these new films.”

As well, Liz Bales, Chief Executive of the Industry Trust for IP Awareness, said: “Star Wars: The Force Awakens is one of the most hotly anticipated films of the year so it’s a great honour to be supporting Disney and the GREAT Britain campaign. We expect the trailer to be one of the most influential to-date within the Moments Worth Paying For campaign - inspiring audiences old and new to make the right choice by paying to watch the film in the way it was meant to be seen – at the cinema.”

While, Phil Clapp, Chief Executive at UK Cinema Association, said: “This unique collaboration is a landmark moment. Those who will have seen the original Star Wars films at the cinema will remember queues out the door for tickets. Today the anticipation of being amongst the first to enjoy Star Wars: The Force Awakens in all its glory on the big screen is just as high. The industry is responding to the demand reflected by the advanced tickets sales with a number of cinemas staying open for 24 hours with screenings throughout the night in the film’s week of release.”

 And to celebrate this news lovelies, I have a brand new trailer for you to enjoy...
