Paul Feig to begin UK shoot on Last Christmas

Emma Thompson has written the screenplay alongside Bryony Kimmings; the former also produces with David Livingstone. Emilia Clarke (pictured) and Henry Golding star.

UK producer Livingstone has recently completed a Judy Garland biopic starring Renee Zellweger as the iconic performer. The feature shot in London – the story centres on Garland’s 1968 sell-out season in the capital – earlier this year.

Director Guy Ritchie is also filming in London. His latest feature Toff Guys, starring Matthew McConaughey, Hugh Grant and Kate Beckinsale, got underway a couple of weeks ago.

Blackbird, a family drama starring Kate Winslet, Susan Sarandon and Mia Wasikowska that is based on the 2014 Danish film Silent Heart, is just wrapping after a three-month shoot in and around London.
