Me Before You is set to be the romance drama not to miss this summer as Emilia Clarke joins forces with Sam Claflin.
Me Before You
Me Before You is a big screen adaptation of the Jojo Moyes novel of the same name and the author has turned her own novel into a screenplay.
The movie will mark the feature film directorial debut for Thea Sharrock as she makes the leap into film for the first time. Sharrock is no stranger to the director's chair, having worked on TV series Call the Midwife and The Hollow Crown.
Clarke and Claflin are set to take on the central roles of Louisa Clark and William Traynor and they feature in some great new images from the film:
A great supporting cast has been assembled as Charles Dance, Janet McTeer, Brendan Coyle, Jenna Coleman, Vanessa Kirby, and Matthew Lewis are all set to star.
Oftentimes you find love where you least expect it. Sometimes it takes you where you never expected to go... Louisa "Lou" Clark (Clarke) lives in a quaint town in the English countryside. With no clear direction in her life, the quirky and creative 26-year-old goes from one job to the next in order to help her tight-knit family make ends meet. Her normally cheery outlook is put to the test, however, when she faces her newest career challenge.
Taking a job at the local "castle," she becomes caregiver and companion to Will Traynor (Claflin), a wealthy young banker who became wheelchair-bound in an accident two years prior, and whose whole world changed dramatically in the blink of an eye. No longer the adventurous soul he once was, the now cynical Will has all but given up. That is until Lou determines to show him that life is worth living. Embarking together on a series of adventures, both Lou and Will get more than they bargained for, and find their lives - and hearts - changing in ways neither one could have imagined.
Me Before You is released 3rd June.
