1ST JASON ISAACS PICS
FROM ARCHIE ITVX SERIES
Daily Mail has published first set photos from Cary Grant biopic series ARCHIE which was shot last year and should arrive to ITVX this Autumn together with Winter King. Jason Isaacs leads the four part drama as Cary Grant, who was born in Bristol, England in 1904, as Archibald Alexander Leach! The series tells about his troubled childhood and how extreme poverty, his father’s adultery and the loss of his older brother, John, tore the family apart and sent his loving mother into a downward spiral of grief and depression. The script also reveals how deceit, cruelty and one, overpowering lie shaped Archie’s life. Harriet Walter stars as Grant’s mother with Henry Lloyd Hughes also in the cat. The series will also stream on BritBox.
I never looked into his life story. What a mess it seemed. But some of the best artists do come from troubled upbringings.
ReplyDeleteYou cannot be an artist if you are perfectly sane, I speak from my own experience lol
DeleteWhen people come in laughing like crazy and ask me where I get my ideas, I always say "from my troubled youth" LOL. They never know how to react.
DeleteIt is not that it is not true.
DeleteWould love to watch this one. I am not sure if Jason Isaacs is the right one for the role of Cary Grant.
ReplyDeleteHe plays him in his older age.
DeleteCary Grant was a really great actor. It would be interesting to learn his life story.
