Anna Paquin and director Stephen Moyer reunite for their second film together, with a UK shoot currently underway.
Anna Paquin is reuniting with director Stephen Moyer for her next film, A Bit Of Light, which is currently shooting in the UK. The collaboration is their second together, following Moyer’s debut film as helmer, The Parting Glass, in which Paquin also starred. Ray Winstone stars opposite Paquin as her father in this one, alongside Gangs Of London's Pippa Bennett-Warner and Home's Youssef Kerkour.
The film follows ‘Ella (Paquin), now living with her father Alan (Winstone) and newly sober having temporarily given up custody of her young daughters to her ex-husband Joseph (Kerkour) and his new partner Bethan (Bennett-Warner). She strikes up an unlikely friendship with a mysterious teenage boy (newcomer Luca Hogan) whose belief in her as a mother helps her rediscover her self-worth.’
Paquin and Moyer first worked together on the vampire show True Blood, but seem to have developed a blossoming creative partnership since. We’re looking forwards to seeing how the chemistry between Paquin and Winstone develops, and we’ll let you know more about the project as we hear it.
