THE ENGLISH SERIES
FIRST EMILY BLUNT PHOTOS
Well, it has been a very, very long wait, but BBC has finally published first images from their new Western series THE ENGLISH with Emily Blunt in the lead role. Given that it will air in November on BBC Two
not One, might it mean it is not good when they moved it to their less
watched channel especially given the fact that we waited for years for
it to arrive after being announced first? Well let us hope not. Emily Blunt stars in this six episode series as Lady Cornelia Locke and Chaske Spencer as Pawnee ex-cavalry scout Eli Whipp in high-octane western which will also stream on Prime Video in the US, Canada, Australia and New Zealand. The series’ acclaimed ensemble cast includes Stephen Rea, Valerie Pachner, Rafe Spall, Tom Hughes, Toby Jones
and Ciarán Hinds!
THE ENGLISH TAKES
the core themes of identity and revenge to tell a uniquely compelling parable on race, love and power. An aristocratic Englishwoman, Lady Cornelia Locke (Emily Blunt) and Eli Whipp (Chaske Spencer) come together in 1890 mid-America to cross a violent landscape built on dreams and blood.Both of them have a clear sense of their destiny but neither is aware that it is rooted in a shared past. They must face increasingly terrifying obstacles that will test them to their cores, physically and psychologically. But as each obstacle is overcome it draws them closer to their ultimate destination, the new town of Hoxem, Wyoming. It is here, after an investigation by the local sheriff Robert Marshall (Stephen Rea) and young widow Martha Myers (Valerie Pachner) into a series of bizarre and macabre unsolved murders, that the full extent of their intertwined history will be truly understood, and they will come face to face with the future they must live.

Is this an indie film?
ReplyDeleteNo, it is an original from British Sky, they have movie streamers for their originals.
DeleteI can't wait for The English!! This looks great and has one of my favorites, Emily Blunt. I love how she's able to act through a picture by simply making a face.
ReplyDeleteAnd it seems it will feature some very stylish costumes.
DeleteWhat Jax said. We do love us some Emily! I was thinking the same about the stylish costumes as well. Even if it isn't up to par, we still have beautiful Emily and nice costumes for eye candy in this.
ReplyDeleteIt is the right time to get a highly stylized epic show. I am currently watching ANATOMY OF A SCANDAL series and it is stunningly gorgeous visually, just what I needed right now, something posh and modern.
DeleteI really liked that one! I wasn't sure if I would, but that is what got me hooked on the mini series kick that I'm currently on.
DeleteI really liked the first episode.
DeleteBluntly put, I love everything Blunt.
ReplyDeleteThat was pretty blunt indeed.
