Wright has been teasing somebehind-the-scenes glimpsesat his mysterious feature film, including some with cinematographerChung-hoon Chung(Oldboy, Lady Vengeance). The pairing between the more comedically-inclined Wright and the dark, intense Chung seems like an odd one, but their unique collaboration is on full display in the first image fromLast Night in Soho. The picture, which Wright shared Friday on Twitter and Instagram, showsLeave No Tracebreakout Thomasin McKenzie sporting some dark eye-make-up and a blonde wig. But the look on her eyes is pure fear, as she recoils from something just out of frame.
“That is a wrap on main unit photography on my next feature film,Last Night in Soho,” the filmmaker wrote onInstagram, going on to thank McKenzie’s costars, includingThe Witch’sAnya Taylor-Joy,Doctor Who’sMatt Smith, andAttack the Block’s Michael Ajao.Game of Thrones’Diana Rigg, as well asTerence Stamp,Michael Ajao, Synnøve Karlsen,Rita Tushinghamand “a few others for you to discover” also reportedly have roles in the film, Wright teased.
An official plot synopsis has yet to be revealed, we’ve heard that the movie will take place in London in both the 1960s and modern day. Reportedly, Taylor-Joy will have the lead role in the 1960s while McKenzie will star in the modern day scenes. As to the reason of the setting, Wright haspreviously said, “I realized I had never made a film about central London – specifically Soho, somewhere I’ve spent a huge amount of time in the last 25 years. WithHot FuzzandShaun Of The Deadyou make movies about places you’ve lived in. This movie is about the London I’ve existed in.”
Last Night in Sohois set to open in theaters onSeptember 25, 2020.
