What a great cast! I've missed Keira, and will absolutely be watching.

i am very perched for keira, sarah, and wintertime spycraft

[maeir]

that's a helluva a cast

[bitchy_ecstasy]

Ben Whishaw is my favourite actor so yes, I am excited about this!

Is it me or has Keira’s career slowed down a little bit? I don’t feel like she’s as high profile as she used to be, could be by choice

[tillychar]

i think it's at least partially by choice. i know she dropped out of a miniseries because it would have meant being away from her kids for longer than she was comfortable with (i think this was 2021ish and she would've had to quarantine). maybe she's at a point where she can be more choosy with roles.

Yeah, it was for the Essex Serpent and it sounds like it was partly over Covid protocols. Not because she's an anti-vaxxer but just because of what it would mean for her family.
