‘Silo’ Star Rebecca Ferguson and Greta Lee Filming Lesbian Rom-Com in London
Movie set sightings often ignite excitement among fans, especially when two renowned actresses are spotted together in an unexpected location. This summer, London has emerged as a vibrant hub for various productions, with cameras capturing a range of projects throughout the city.
This particular sighting, however, pleasantly surprised fans. Rebecca Ferguson has established a diverse career spanning blockbuster franchises and acclaimed dramas, while Greta Lee has recently become one of the industry’s most in-demand talents, making any collaboration between the two instantly intriguing.
Reports indicate that Ferguson and Lee were seen filming at Horse Guards Parade in London, working on what is being referred to as an untitled romantic comedy. Footage revealed the duo on set near the historic parade grounds, although no studio or production company has publicly confirmed details about the project.
While the film’s storyline and creative team remain undisclosed, Lee may have hinted at what audiences can expect. In a recent discussion with Willem Dafoe for Interview Magazine, related to their film ‘Late Fame,’ Lee described her current project when asked about her work. “It’s a romance, but it’s between two women, and I haven’t done that before,” she shared with Dafoe, adding playfully, “Full on, baby. I’m doing my stretches.”
This exchange, coupled with the London set images, strongly implies that the romantic comedy revolves around a relationship between the characters played by Ferguson and Lee. However, neither the studio nor the actresses have officially announced the project or its title. Fans online have begun speculating about the potential director, given the tight-lipped nature of the details.
Lee’s remarks to Dafoe align with a broader discussion the two actors had about pursuing new creative challenges. When Dafoe inquired about her attraction to unfamiliar roles, Lee expressed admiration for his willingness to explore a diverse range of characters, leading to an exchange of thoughts on the allure of stepping into new creative territories.
For Ferguson, this romantic comedy represents a significant departure from her typical roles in high-stakes action and prestige dramas. She has recently balanced her work in major franchises like the ‘Mission: Impossible’ series and Denis Villeneuve’s ‘Dune’ films, alongside television projects like ‘Silo,’ making this rom-com a refreshing change of pace.
Lee, on the other hand, is coming off her praised performance in ‘Late Fame’ alongside Dafoe, directed by Kent Jones and penned by Samy Burch, which premiered in New York on August 7 before expanding further. This film, an adaptation of an Arthur Schnitzler novella reimagined for modern New York, has received strong reviews for both Dafoe and Lee’s performances.
With production seemingly already in progress based on the London sightings, more information regarding the rom-com’s cast, director, and release timeline is likely to emerge in the coming weeks. Given the impressive credentials of both leads, this project is shaping up to be one of the most anticipated romantic comedies on the horizon, even before an official announcement.
For now, fans will have to rely on set photos and ambiguous interview hints to piece together what Ferguson and Lee are collaborating on.
