Exclusive: His Dark Materials episodic director William McGregor has come aboard to helm the movie Smile (working title) for Netflix and Matt Reeves’ 6th and Idaho, a project which is described as a vampire story in the spirit of Nicolas Winding Refn’s Drive.

McGregor will co-write with Helen Kingston; she previously having written the Lena Headey 2019 movie The Flood.

Smile follows teenager Millie, whose life is turned upside-down when she’s bitten by a vampire while traveling to LA with her school. Wanting nothing more than to be human again, Millie learns she can reverse the process if she is able to kill the man who bit her before the next sunrise.

McGregor’s 2019 debut feature film Gwen premiered at the Toronto International Film Festival, and was a British Independent Film Award nominee and won two Welsh BAFTA’s. McGregor is currently directing the Joe Cornish penned Lockwood & Co...

A relatively modest, low-key tale about global refugee issues that are usually portrayed in a higher dramatic key, “The Flood” makes a somewhat underwhelming first impression. But it gradually overcomes that to arrive at a potent (if still quiet) cumulative impact, bolstered by strong performances from leads Ivanno Jeremiah and Lena Headey. A nonstarter on theatrical home turf nearly a year ago, the feature should do better in home formats, with Samuel Goldwyn launching release to Stateside VOD platforms on May 1.

Helen Kingston’s screenplay initially seems too arid and schematic, as Headey’s grimly impersonal English immigration officer Wendy interviews newly-arrived asylum seeker Haile (Jeremiah). He says he can’t return to his native Eritrea because, “They will kill me.” But the flashbacks detailing his flight feel too sketchy as explanation, with gaps larger than our imaginations can easily fill in.

Under considerable pressure from her superior not to...

Lena Headey sat for 30 minutes in front of a nearly sold-out audience at Laemmle Santa Monica on Feb. 29 fielding questions and offering answers (from amusing to sobering) following a screening of her new film, the intimate refugee drama The Flood, written by Helen Kingston and directed by Anthony Woodley.

It proved to be a weighty conversation, understandably so considering the film’s subject matter, but the real shocker was that not one query centered on Game of Thrones, the show that gave Headey global fame thanks to eight seasons playing Cersei Lannister. Even more surprising because her GoT colleague Iain ...

In The Flood, Game of Thrones star Lena Headey plays a hardened and deeply troubled immigration officer who is entrusted with handling a sensitive asylum case. Directed by Anthony Woodley and executive produced by Headey herself, the film offers a frank account of the real human cost behind the refugee crisis in Europe.

When he is apprehended armed with a knife attempting to enter the UK illegally in the back of a truck, Eritrean refugee Haile (Ivanno Jeremiah) is arrested and treated as a terrorism risk. With increased media interest in Haile’s story, immigration chief Philip (played by Game of Thrones star Iain Glen) enlists the help of Wendy (Headey), one of his most efficient officers who is known for her swift and cold dealings with asylum applications.

Haile’s story is revealed in flashbacks as he is questioned by an increasingly irritated Wendy. Seemingly unmoved at first by...

Lena Headey plays an immigration official overseeing the case of an Eritrean migrant whose capture at Dover sparks tabloid fury

Here is a well-meaning and honestly acted drama from screenwriter Helen Kingston and director Anthony Woodley about migrants seeking asylum in the UK. But it feels glib, programmatic and contrived, particularly the ending, and almost at times like a bien-pensant image of how things are behind the uncaring newspaper headlines.

Haile (Ivanno Jeremiah) is a migrant from Eritrea who has been captured at Dover in circumstances that have led him to be demonised by the tabloids as a possible violent terrorist. Wendy (Lena Headey) is the immigration official who has to assess his case, while dealing with personal problems of her own, and under pressure from her harassed boss Philip (Iain Glen) who is in turn being leant on by the Home Office. As Wendy questions Haile in the interview room,...

Curzon Artificial Eye has released the official UK trailer and poster for ‘The Flood’ starring Lena Headey.

Set in France and the UK at a time when politics are more divisive than ever, and lines between refugees and terrorists are intentionally blurred by politicians, the filmmakers wanted to highlight the difference between the extraordinary and perilous journey people are making with the slow, clinical, and bureaucratic response around the world. The filmmakers researched heavily, basing the script on actual stories, including interviews with ex-Home Office officials, for a measured and objective look at issues that permeate the news regularly.

Director Anthony Woodley, writer Helen Kingston, and producer Luke Healy all spent time volunteering in the Calais Jungle and felt compelled to make a film that was truthful to the refugee experience. The result is a poignant, measured piece of filmmaking, setting itself apart as one of the few feature narrative...

Lena Headey and Iain Glen immigration drama “The Flood” has been picked up by Curzon Artificial Eye for the U.K. Having battled for the Iron Throne in the HBO juggernaut series, the pair star in the timely independent movie about a hot-button issue. After a June 17 event screening of the film, Curzon will release the film both in its British cinemas and on its on-demand service June 21.

Headey plays Wendy, a British immigration officer deciding the fate of an asylum seeker, Haile. Immigration remains a headline issue in the U.K. and continental Europe. Headey previously told Variety that she hoped the picture would “grow a bit more compassion, understanding, curiosity or bravery.”

Glen plays Wendy’s boss in the film. The “Game of Thrones” associations continue with the casting of Ivanno Jeremiah, who is attached to an upcoming prequel to the HBO fantasy drama, as Haile. The film...

Lena Headey wants her new movie, “The Flood,” to further understanding of immigration crises around the world. She plays Wendy in the film, a British immigration officer deciding the fate of an asylum seeker. “What I hope, personally, is we change 10 minds, or people reconsider how they feel about someone who has lost everything,” she told Variety. “Or maybe it will grow a bit more compassion, understanding, curiosity or bravery.”

Helen Kingston’s script for “The Flood” draws on real-life stories after her, producer Luke Healy and director Anthony Woodley spent time volunteering in Calais, France, a refugee hot spot. Kingston’s work is “a really smart take on what’s happening,” Headey said, adding that the film deals with its subject matter without preaching or being overtly political. “I think it’s a very quiet, strong bit of cinema and it’s really honest about what’s happening and...
