The Brits are Coming Casts Six New Faces
Six new faces join Uma Thurman in the currently filming comedy, The Brits are Coming.
The new additions include Oscar nominee Tim Roth (The Hateful Eight), Golden Globe nominee Parker Posey (Superman Returns), Maggie Q (The Divergent Series), Alice Eve (Star Trek Into Darkness), Golden Globe nominee Stephen Fry (Sherlock Holmes: A Game of Shadows) and Golden Globe and Emmy Award nominee Sofia Vergara (Chef) all of whom will star opposite previously-announced Oscar nominee Uma Thurman (Pulp Fiction).
In this broad comedy, an eccentric British con-artist couple, Harriet (Thurman) and Peter Fox (Roth), flee to Los Angeles to get away from paying a large debt to Ivanka, a notorious gangster (Maggie Q) after a failed poker game. In an attempt to raise the money, the couple approach a former associate, Sidney (Fry), who secretly sells their whereabouts. With the gangster hot on their trail, the pair scheme to win back the money by executing a jewel theft operation involving Peter’s ex-wife (Eve) and her new husband, Gabriel.
Shooting is currently underway in New York with James Oakley (The Devil You Know) directing a script co-written with his fellow The Devil You Know scribe Alex Michaelides.
