But the bit that had easily astonished me was he’d read the screenplay so many times, clearly numerous times, because he was able to quote quite a lot of the material that didn’t even involve the character of Tom, which shows an astonishing level of understanding. He’d read the novels, which I would have expected, but sometimes don’t over-expect.
I met with Harry at my offices in London, at the top of one of the theatres in the West End. He said: ”Just so you know, we shared this script with Harry, and he has responded to the material and would love to meet you.” Then they did that lovely thing of going: ‘If that’s okay.’ At the time, Dunkirk was just out, and he’d been wrapping on Don’t Worry Darling. In an i nterview for Deadline, Director Michael Grandage said: The script was swishing around CAA, and so one day, we got this curious call. And you may ask how in hell Harry Styles was cast in a gay movie and why? The whole Styles fandom, including the One Direction fandom, went crazy about the project. And I will say everything, including the life of the book author Bethan Roberts the book was immediately published in the USA and became a best seller. Still, everything changed for this project the moment Harry Styles was announced to be the lead man of the film. The truth is that the film probably would be lost in the immense movie library of Amazon, and only members of the LGBTQ would have known about My Policeman. He and his husband, Greg Berlanti, then worked tirelessly to get the funding for the film.Īmazon Studios announced in 2020 that they would produce the movie, and it will be released to stream on Amazon Prime Video. The incredible Robbie Rogers, whose championing of the novel goes back to when it was first published, met me way back in 2013 to discuss potentially adapting it.
She mentioned in an interview for Vogue magazine, “ I’m not involved in the film adaptation in any official capacity, but the producers, Berlanti Productions and Independent Films, have been very lovely and have involved me in all sorts of ways. She wasn’t involved in the making of the screenplay or the movie. With a supporting cast of Gina Mckee (Most known from the movie Notting Hill, who played Hugh Grant’s best friend) Linus Roache and Ruper Everett (His most famous movie is when he played Julia Roberts’ best friend in the 90’s Rom-Com “ My best friend wedding” he’s an openly gay actor, a few from the ’90s)Īcademy Nominated for the movie Philadelphia, Ron Nyswaner wrote the screenplay, adapted from the 2012 book romance novel written by Bethan Roberts. My Policeman is a new Amazon Prime original movie starring Harry Styles, Emma Corrin (best known as Princess Diana in the Netflix show the crown) and David Dawson.
