'THEIR FINEST' WW2 TRAILER WITH SAM CLAFLIN, GEMMA ARTERTON, BILL NIGHY! NEW 'VICEROY'S HOUSE' POSTER WITH HUGH BONNEVILLE, MANISH DAYAL

'VICEROY'S HOUSE' POSTER

MOVIE STARRING HUGH BONNEVILLE AND MANISH DAYAL

Two British movies for you today, beginning with the new poster for VICEROY'S HOUSE which is out in cinemas this March with Hugh Bonneville as Lord Mountbatten and Gillian Anderson as Lady Mountbatten, with our most beloved Manish Dayal (100 Foot Journey) rounding up the cast!

 Story is set in Viceroy’s House in Delhi, the home of British invaders and exploiters of India. After 300 years, that dark rule is coming to an end and for six months in 1947 Lord Mountbatten, great grandson of Queen Victoria, assumed the post of the last Viceroy, charged with handing India back to its people. The story unfolds within this great house where the Mountbattens lived upstairs and downstairs lived their 500 Hindu, Muslim and Sikh servants. As the political elite converged on the house to wrangle over the birth of independent India, conflict erupted.

Grant, in a story about a British film crew that attempts to boost morale during World War II by making a propaganda film after the Blitzkrieg.

'A STORM IN THE STARS' PICS

DOUGLAS BOOTH & ELLE FANNING

To end up our weekend (which created quite a buzz around the net, thank you very much) of photo reports from the sets of new period set movies, two more this Monday, starting with the pictures coming from the production of Haifaa Al Mansour's A STORM IN THE STARS historical drama starring teen stars Douglas Booth and Elle Fanning.

THE GREAT ROMANTIC POETS
The story of the period set drama movie brings the details of the love affair between 18-year-old Mary Godwin and legendary Romantic poet Percy Shelley, which resulted in Mary Shelley writing her famous horror novel Frankenstein. Elle Fanning plays Mary Shelley, Douglas Booth is poetical genius Percy Bysshe Shelley, while Bel Powley appears as Mary’s sister Claire Clairmon! Tom Sturridge portrays another great poet Lord Byron with Ben Hardy playing English writer John William Polidori and Hugh O'Connor is Samuel Taylor Coleridge!

'VICEROY'S HOUSE' MOVIE

WITH HUGH BONNEVILLE, MANISH DAYAL, GILLIAN ANDERSON

Not much to report to you today, so we're going to exotic locations, starting with a trip to India with a new historical movie VICEROY'S HOUSE which should come to the cinemas in the United Kingdom sometime later this year! It will see Huge Bonneville and Gillian Anderson playing an unlikely couple: Lord Mountbatten, the last viceroy of India and his wife. Michael Gambon and lovely Manish Dayal whom we fell in love with in A 100 FOOT JOURNEY also star!

THE STORY  
In 1947, Lord Mountbatten assumes the post of last Viceroy, charged with handing India back to its people, living upstairs at the house which was the home of British rulers, whilst 500 Hindu, Muslim and Sikh servants lived downstairs.

'IGNACIO DE LOYOLA' 

  ANDREAS MUNOZ EPIC MOVIE

Meanwhile, in the clip department we're going international as I'm about to show you the first trailer for new historical epic movie IGNACIO DE LOYOLA which should arrive into cinemas probably this summer sometime in July! Andreas Munoz is playing St. Ignatius of Loyola, founder of the Society of Jesus.

FROM KNIGHT TO SAINT   The movie is told by a young priest who was once assigned to defend him before the Spanish Inquisition following Ignacio's transformation from a brash, impulsive youth obsessed with women and sword-fighting; to the masterful, charismatic leader of an order that would change the face of Christendom. In his lifelong quest to become the heroic Knight of his fantasies, Ignacio stares death in the face again and again, finding himself imprisoned for murder; having his leg shattered by a cannonball in battle; driven to near suicide by his inner demons; and finally finding his life in the hands of the Inquisition.
