The film will be aiming to top the figures for Dench’s most recent historical adaptation, Kenneth Branagh’s Shakespeare biopic All Is True, which opened to £264,972 in February this year and is nearing the end of its run, currently on £997,611. Cookson plays Joan Stanley, a Cambridge physics student in 1938 who falls for a young communist while Dench takes up the character in 2000 when MI5 come to arrest her. Produced by David Parfitt’s Trademark Films, the Lionsgate-distributed feature is led by Judi Dench and 2014 Screen Star of Tomorrow Sophie Cookson, and based on the novel of the same name by Jennie Rooney.
Holdovers look set to dominate the UK box office this weekend, with Trevor Nunn’s spy drama Red Joan amongst the new openers.
