Exclusive: It’s a Sin star and musician Olly Alexander has created an original song for upcoming Sky’s coming-of-age love story Bonus Track.
Alexander is also an executive producer on the film, which comes from Josh O’Connor and Mike Gilbert and is set to premiere at BFI’s London Film Festival this October before launching on Sky Cinema.
The film, set in 2006, follows small-town teenager George (Joe Anders), who dreams of being a star though no-one else sees his talent. When Max (Samuel Small), the son of a mega-famous musical duo and takes and takes an interest in his music, George can’t believe it. But as they grow closer, George begins to question why he wants to spend time with Max — he’s faced with a dream come true, if only he can figure out what that dream actually is now.

Exclusive: Here’s the striking first official image of Kate Winslet as Lee Miller in feature Lee.
The image, shot during filming on location in Croatia, shows Oscar winner Winslet as the pioneering American photographer who covered WWII in Europe for British Vogue.
Filming is ongoing on the directorial debut of respected cinematographer Ellen Kuras (Eternal Sunshine Of The Spotless Mind).
The film is not being called a biopic by Winslet and the producers, but it does explore the most significant decade of Lee Miller’s life. As a middle-aged woman, she refused to be remembered as a model and male artists’ muse and defied expectations by travelling to Europe to report from the frontline. There, in part as a reaction to her own well-hidden trauma, she used her Rolleiflex camera to give a voice to the voiceless. What Lee captured on film in Dachau and throughout Europe was shocking and horrific.
