While not much is known about the plot, we do know that the film is titled Empire of Light and is a love story, penned by Sam, set in and around a beautiful old cinema on the South Coast of England in the 1980s.

Also joining Olivia and Colin are Top Boy's Michael Ward and Sanditon's Crystal Clarke as well as Tanya Moodie (Motherland) and Toby Jones (Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy).
The film marks Sam's follow-up to 2020 Best Picture nominee 1917, his epic war film which not only received ten Oscar nominations and three wins, but grossed $384 million at the worldwide box office.
Sam isn't the only award winner on the project, however, as much of the star-studded cast have received their fair share of accolades and prestigious nominations.
