Colin Firth and Stanley Tucci star as a couple traveling through England in an old RV visiting family and friends in places from their past in Supernova.
Supernova is a modern love story centered on Sam (Firth) and Tusker (Tucci), partners of 20 years who are traveling the country in a bid to reconnect with their past amid Tusker’s early-onset dementia diagnosis. As the trip progresses, their relationship is tested like never before. Ultimately, they must confront the question of what it means to love one another in the face of Tusker’s irreparable illness.
Watch the trailer below:
Firth won an Oscar, a Golden Globe and a BAFTA for his portrayal of King George VI in The King’s Speech while his performance in A Single Man also won him a BAFTA and an Oscar nomination. His upcoming projects include Mothering Sunday and Project Mincemeat.
Meanwhile, Tucci was nominated for an Oscar for his performance in The Lovely Bones and has appeared in the Hunger Games movies as well as The Devil Wears Prada. He recently wrote and directed Alberto Giacometti biopic Final Portrait and will appear next in the new film adaption of Roald Dahl’s The Witches.
The film will world premiere at the ongoing San Sebastián International Film Festival on Sept. 24, while the U.K. premiere will take place at the BFI London Film Festival on Oct. 11. No word yet on whether this film will hit the Singapore market but here's hoping!
