Bridgerton star Phoebe Dynevor's new Netflix thriller, Fair Play, is worlds away from her role as Daphne in the popular period series.
The 28-year-old actress is starring opposite Oppenheimer's Alden Ehrenreich in the erotic film, which will be released in UK cinemas on September 29 before arriving on the streaming platform a week later. Watch the gripping trailer below.
The original film, follows financial analysts and engaged couple Emily and Luke, who are in a relationship forbidden by their shared employer. When Emily is offered an unexpected promotion, the shift in power dynamic threatens to unravel far more than their relationship.
The upcoming release, which is Chloe Domont's directorial debut, is described by Netflix as "a tense and emotional thrill ride that tests the very core of a young couple's relationship".
The full synopsis reads: "When a coveted promotion at a cutthroat financial firm arises, once supportive exchanges between lovers Emily (Phoebe Dynevor) and Luke (Alden Ehrenreich) begin to sour into something more sinister. As the power dynamics irrevocably shift in their relationship, the couple must face the true price of success and the unnerving limits of ambition.
"In her feature debut, writer-director Chloe Domont weaves a taut relationship thriller, staring down the destructive gender dynamics that pit partners against each other in a world that is transforming faster than the rules can keep up. Also starring Eddie Marsan, Rich Sommer, and Sebastian De Souza, Fair Play unravels the uncomfortable collision of empowerment and ego."
Speaking about the new film, director Chloe told Netflix: "It was a story that was burning inside of me and a story I couldn't not tell.
"I wanted to reckon with some unresolved feelings I had in the past, specifically dating men who I felt were threatened by either my ambition or any little bits of accomplishments. These dynamics should no longer be normalized," she added.
