“White Bird” is a new period drama that serves as a prequel to “Wonder”, focusing on the character of Julian Albans (played by Bryce Gheisar), who was the antagonist in the previous movie.
In this new installment directed by Marc Forster, the story explores the experiences of his grandmother, Grand-mère (played by Helen Mirren), as she recounts her life during the Nazi occupation of France during World War II.
In addition to the two main stars, the title features Gillian Anderson as Julien’s mother, Ariella Glaser as Sara Blum and Orlando Schwerdt in the role of Julien Beaumier. Here, check out everything about its music…
