Joe Alwyn smoldering in Kinds of Kindness.

The Big Picture With filming already underway in Wales, some fresh details have surfaced regarding Chloe Zhao's next directorial effort, Hamnet. It will be another star-studded affair in Zhao's portfolio, as the epic drama has added two famous names to the casting in Emily Watson and Joe Alwyn. The duo will play currently unknown supporting roles alongside previously announced Paul Mescal and Jessie Buckley who star opposite each other as main characters William and Agnes Shakespeare.

Hamnet is a fictional telling of a tragic story involving world-famous playwright William Shakespeare and his wife Agnes. Coinciding with the point when Shakespeare's writing career was about to take off, the young couple lost their only son, Hamnet, at just 11 years old in 1596. The story will navigate a dark time in their lives as they struggle to come to terms with their shared grief.

O’Farrell adapted the script alongside Zhao, who directs following the success of her work on Marvel's Eternals and Nomadland. The project equally has some powerhouse names behind-the-scenes with producers including Sam Mendes and Steven Spielberg as well as Liza Marshall and Pippa Harris. Executive producers include Kristie Macosko Krieger, Nic Gonda, and Laurie Borg.
