Josh O’Connor keeps rising in Hollywood, becoming one of the most sought-after actors after starring in two high-profile films this year: Luca Guadagnino’s sports drama “Challengers” and Alice Rohrwacher’s drama “La Chimera.”
The Emmy-winning actor, however, isn’t slowly down anytime soon, as he has already booked several upcoming projects. Among them, probably the most anticipated is Rian Johnson’s third ‘Knives Out’ mystery film.
However, fans of the actor don’t have to wait long to watch him again on the big screen as he is part of the cast of ‘Lee,’ an upcoming drama starring Kate Winslet. The film, helmed by Ellen Kuras, already premiered last year during the festival season and it received good reviews. Check out more.
When is ‘Lee’ Coming Out in Theaters?
The drama film “Lee” is scheduled to be released in theaters on September 27, 2024. The film premiered at the Toronto International Film Festival, where it garnered attention for its portrayal of the life and work of Lee Miller, a renowned World War II photographer.
Who is in the Cast of ‘Lee’?
“Lee” features an ensemble cast led by Kate Winslet, who portrays the title character. The cast also includes Josh O’Connor, Marion Cotillard, Andrea Riseborough, Andy Samberg, Noémie Merlant, and Alexander Skarsgård.
What is ‘Lee’ About?
“Lee” tells the story of Lee Miller, a former model who transitioned into a significant role as a war photographer during World War II, working for Vogue. The movie centers on her experiences documenting the war, capturing both the horrors and humanity of the conflict.
The narrative is based on Antony Penrose’s 1988 book The Lives of Lee Miller, and the screenplay was crafted by Liz Hannah, John Collee, and Marion Hume. Through Miller’s lens, the film explores the emotional toll of war and the complexities of her life.
