Harry Styles Is A Total Heartbreaker In The My Policeman Trailer
The love triangle here looks intense.
Harry Styles is about to be a full-blown movie star. The iconic singer may be known for his music skills, but he's clearly ready to show a brand new side of himself in Hollywood. So while you wait to see him on the big screen in his first leading role, here's everything to know about Harry Styles' new movie My Policeman, from its cast to intel on its release date.
As dedicated Harries know, this isn't the first time the former One Direction star has ventured into acting. After appearing in an episode of iCarly during his boy band days, Styles showed up as a hunky soldier in Christopher Nolan's Oscar-winning 2017 film Dunkirk and even doubled as the host and musical guest on a 2019 episode of Saturday Night Live.
But Styles' leading-man status is very exciting and very new. He recently filmed alongside Florence Pugh in Olivia Wilde’s twisty drama Don’t Worry Darling, so between that and My Policeman, the Grammy winner is truly about to absolutely dominate your moviegoing experiences. Styles' role as Tom in My Policeman also promises to be one of his most emotional performances yet, as the film follows a star-crossed LGBTQ+ romance over several decades, with Styles as one of the romantic leads.
My Policeman Plot
Based on author Bethan Roberts' 2012 novel of the same name, My Policeman focuses on a love triangle between three people in 1950s Brighton: a policeman named Tom, a woman named Marion, and a man named Patrick. Because of the homophobia of the time, Tom decides to marry Marion and also continue seeing Patrick in secret. But it's a risky setup, and when one of them breaks, all three individuals deal with the devastating fallout.
According to Deadline, the movie begins in the 1990s as a much older Tom and Patrick reconnect and look back on their romance.
My Policeman Cast
Styles will lead the film as Tom, while The Crown's breakout star Emma Corrin will portray Marion and Peaky Blinders' David Dawson will play Patrick. In the later timeline, Linus Roache will play older Tom, Gina McKee will play older Marion, and Rupert Everett will play older Patrick.
My Policeman Release Date
My Policeman will premiere in movie theaters on Oct. 21, and then it will become available to stream on Amazon Prime Video a couple weeks later on Nov. 4.
My Policeman Trailer
Amazon Studios released the first full-length for My Policeman on Sept. 7, 2022. The trailer begins with Tom, Marion, and Patrick toasting, “To all of us,” foreshadowing the film’s central love triangle between the three of them. The trailer goes on to highlight Tom and Marion’s wedding, along with some steamy moments between Tom and Patrick. A flash-forward shows the older versions of the characters, and an older Marion (McKee) tells Tom, “He was always in your life — in our lives.”
Catch all the romantic drama in Styles’ leading-man debut when My Policeman hits theaters on Oct. 21.
