Last Autumn we brought you the news that fans of Ian McEwan were in for a treat this year with several adaptations and one of these is the Children Act. McEwan wrote the screenplay for the movie and it’s to star Dame Emma Thompson who will play Fiona Maye, a high court judge who presides over cases in the family division.
The book is rollercoaster of emotions as Maye’s marriage problems and a difficult case involving a 17-year-old Jehovah’s Witness collide, and it looks as though the movie will stay true to the fantastic story.
The official trailer is now released and you can watch it here:
If you haven’t read the book and would like to do so before the movie releases, you have until September 14th to do so!
