“Everything about this film feels incredibly authentic. It’s a true portrayal of London.” Apple TV has just unveiled a behind-the-scenes featurette providing a quick look at Steve McQueen’s latest – a WWII drama set in London called Blitz. Taking place during the bombings on London at the start of WWII, following a young boy lost in the city. This premiered at the 2024 London & NYFF Film Festivals and will be opening in November in theaters first before it’s later on Apple TV to stream at home. Nice to see McQueen on set in some of this footage. A defiant young boy goes on an adventure running around London during the war only to find himself in immense peril, while a distraught Rita searches for her missing son. Saoirse Ronan is Rita, with Elliott Heffernan as her 9-year-old son George. The full ensemble cast in this features Harris Dickinson, Benjamin Clementine, Kathy Burke, Paul Weller, Stephen Graham, CJ Beckford, Leigh Gill, Mica Ricketts, Alex Jennings, Joshua McGuire, Hayley Squires, Erin Kellyman and Sally Messham. This is an even better trailer than the actual trailer for it. I’m even more excited to watch it now! Looks immersive & powerful, as a good Steve McQueen film usually is. And playing in theaters soon. // Continue Reading ›
