Harry Styles mania is reaching a fever pitch this year. In addition to his well-reviewed new album and its inescapable single, the former One Direction member is out to prove he’s more than just a global pop star.
With two high profile films on the way, Styles might just be a capital-A Actor, too.In September, he’ll star opposite Florence Pugh in the Stepford-esque psychological thriller, Don’t Worry Darling, directed by his A-list partner, Olivia Wilde.
And just a few short weeks later, My Policeman will debut, a handsome British romance from filmmaker Michael Grandage, also starring The Crown‘s Emma Corrin and Peaky Blinders‘ David Dawson.For our purposes, My Policeman is at the top of our most-anticipated list because, as has been widely publicized, Styles will be playing a closeted gay man.
And while we can speculate over just how “gay” he’ll get for the role, we’ll have to wait until the film’s release later this year to know for sure.In the meantime, here’s everything we know about My Policeman so far…The truth is, we actually know quite a bit about My Policeman already because its an adaptation of a 2012 novel of the same name from author Bethan Roberts.
