Ahead of its presentation at the TIFF (Toronto Film Festival) market, the romantic comedy is announced Honeymoon/Funeralwhich will star Rebecca Ferguson (Dune: Part Three, Silo) y Greta Lee (Past Lives, The Morning Show).
Filming is already underway in London, under the direction of Nahnatchka Khan (Always Be My Maybe, Totally Killer). The script was written by Julia Bicknell (Yellowjackets, 13 Reasons Why, The Midnight Club), reports Deadline.
MRC is financing the project, with FilmNation in charge of sales, which have already begun prior to its presentation in the TIFF market.
The premise of the film is the following:
“Two women who meet on a flight from Los Angeles to London—one traveling alone on her honeymoon after being jilted by her girlfriend, and the other returning home for her mother's funeral—end up spending the week together.”
