The film follows Lawrance as Charlotte, a young Brit stunned by the one-two punch of learning she’s pregnant and losing her beloved boyfriend soon after. Shaken to her core and without much support in the English countryside she’s desperate to get out of, Charlotte gets tangled up with her dead partner’s creepy family, who are a little too excited about the impending birth. That includes Shaw as scary mommy Margaret, who tips between general know-it-all-ness and something far more sinister....

“I watched it probably in one night,” Stewart said of the recent Emmy-winning “The Crown” season. “I think [actress Emma Corrin] did a really beautiful job. I mean, not to say that my opinion matters at all! But I loved her in it, truly.” It turns out Stewart and Corrin’s portrayals of Princess Diana share a common starting point in dialect coach William Conacher. Stewart worked with Conacher just as Corrin did before here and just as Naomi Watts did to play Princess Diana in Oliver Hirschbiegel’s 2013 biographical drama “Diana....

In a new interview with Harpar’s Bazaar, Lynch’s role as the new 007 in “No Time to Die” is confirmed. The actress shared with the publication how she overcame the toxic backlash to her Bond role: “For a week, she deleted her social-media apps, meditated, and saw no one but family, while comforting herself with the knowledge that the aggressive comments were ultimately not personal.” “I am one Black woman — if it were another Black woman cast in the role, it would have been the same conversation, she would have got the same attacks, the same abuse,” Lynch said....

They also reflect years of effort on the part of the filmmaker to tackle a subject far riskier than the male slackers who populate his cinematic universe in everything from “Shaun of the Dead” to “Baby Driver.” With the new movie finally opening after its pandemic delays last year, it puts the 47-year-old Wright at another turning point in his career. “I’m sort of not ready to let the movie go,” he said in an interview at the end of a long press tour for “Last Night in Soho” this week....
