Lashana Lynch Wraps Production On Debbie Tucker Green’s “Ear For Eye”
Variety has reported that Lashana Lynch (“Captain Marvel” and “No Time To Die”) has wrapped principal photography on BAFTA and Olivier-winning Debbie Tucker Green’s “Ear For Eye” at Kennington Studios.
The film is an adaptation of Tucker Green’s own acclaimed play, which was staged at London’s Royal Court Theatre in 2018, starring Lynch.
The play, and the film, follows British and American Black characters of different generations navigating their way through today’s society, offering a critical perspective on the state of the nation.
The cast also includes Tosin Cole (“The Souvenir”), Carmen Munroe (“Desmond’s”), Danny Sapani (“MotherFatherSon”), Nadine Marshall (“Sitting In Limbo”) and Arinzé Kene (“I’m Your Woman”).
The film is produced by Fiona Lamptey for Fruit Tree Media.
The executive producers are Rose Garnett for BBC Film, Farhana Bhula for the BFI, Barbara Broccoli for Eon Productions and green. Broccoli was a producer of the stage play, which led to Lynch being cast as a 007 agent in the upcoming James Bond film. Lynch was previously best known for her role in superhero film Captain Marvel.
Ear For Eye marks green’s second feature after Second Coming, starring Idris Elba, which won the Big Screen Award at International Film Festival Rotterdam in 2015.
