Here's the first look at
Steve Coogan in the lead for the upcoming
Michael Winterbottom-directed
The Look of Love, formerly titled The King of Soho.
Following their critically-acclaimed collaborations in 24 Hour Party People, A Cock and Bull Story and The Trip, The Look of Love is scheduled for a March 8th 2013.
Coogan plays Paul Raymond, a 20th century legend who became known as the ‘King Of Soho,' while
Anna Friel (as Raymond's wife Jean),
Imogen Poots (as his tragic daughter Debbie),
Matt Lucas, Stephen Fry and
David Walliams co-star.
Coogan told
Empire:
Like 24 Hour Party People, it's a very British story about an eccentric character at the centre of pivotal events in British culture. I love the film. It has that strange combination of comedy and tragedy that Michael Winterbottom manages to pull off with a real deftness of touch. Like very few films these days it's actually about something without being portentous. Oh and there's lots of naked ladies in it too!
No U.S. release date yet.
