Jessie Buckley to reteam with Olivia Colman to headline comedy Wicked Little Letters

Jessie Buckley to reteam with Olivia Colman to headline comedy Wicked Little Letters

The Lost Daughter actors Olivia Colman and Jessie Buckley are set to reteam for comedy Wicked Little Letters, set at French powerhouse Studiocanal.   

The film is based on a true story and will see Oscar-winner Colman and Chernobyl star Buckley playing neighbours who come together to solve a mystery.


According to Deadline, Thea Sharrock is directing the movie from a script by British actor and writer Jonny Sweet.

“Wicked Little Letters is a divine comedy with a profoundly moving core. Hilarious, witty, joyous, and based on a true story as relevant today as it was 100 years ago. Watching this film will be like hitting your funny bone; when the tears of pain and laughter are impossible to separate,” Sharrock said in a statement.

Principal photography on the project is scheduled to start later this year in the UK.

Colman will also produce the movie via her South Of The River banner along with Ed Sinclair.

Studiocanal CEO Anna Marsh, EVP Global Production Ron Halpern, and SVP Global Production Joe Naftalin are executive producers for Studiocanal.

Brooklyn Beckham told parents to contact him only through lawyers amid family rift

Highlights

  • Brooklyn Beckham requested that David and Victoria Beckham contact him only via lawyers during a period of strained relations
  • Legal letters were exchanged, though no formal action was taken
  • The request followed what Brooklyn viewed as damaging briefings about his wife, Nicola Peltz Beckham
  • Both sides are said to be hoping for reconciliation, despite ongoing hurt

A breakdown that moved beyond private disagreement

Relations within the Beckham family deteriorated sharply last summer, reaching a point where Brooklyn Beckham asked his parents to communicate with him only through legal representatives. The request marked one of the most serious moments in an already strained relationship between the eldest Beckham son and his parents.

Sources say the instruction led to an exchange of letters between legal teams at Schillings, representing Brooklyn, and Harbottle & Lewis, who act for David and Victoria Beckham. While no legal proceedings were initiated, the correspondence made clear that Brooklyn did not want direct contact or public references to him from his parents, including on social media.
