A quartet of fast-rising British names are coming together for a buzzy new project launching at the Cannes market.
Bella Ramsey, Louis Partridge and Ruby Stokes are set to lead Sunny Dancer, the sophomore feature from George Jaques. Embankment Films is handling global pre-sales of the film, which it says showcases the “best of new British talent.”
“Sunny Dancer” follows Ivy (Ramsey), a teenager in remission from cancer, whose gloriously outspoken mum and well-intentioned dad insist she attend Children Run Free Camp, a summer retreat for young adults affected by cancer. The camp’s slogan, “Where kids come to kid,” does little to alleviate Ivy’s apprehension, and a quick Google search confirms her fears when she stumbles upon a cringeworthy promotional video filled with tacky messages and clichéd sunsets. As if conquering cancer wasn’t enough of a challenge, Ivy now faces the prospect of spending her summer at what she calls “chemo camp.

With all the iconic roles that Cate Blanchett has taken on over the years, it's hard to imagine how she has time to raise her four kids, but the "Disclaimer" actor and her producer husband of almost 25 years, Andrew Upton, have always made parenthood a key priority. With three sons - Dashiell, Roman, and Ignatius - and their daughter, Edith, the pair have their hands full. Blanchett previously opened up about the struggles of balancing her career with being a mom in a 2016 interview with the UK's Evening Standard.
"The film industry is no different from any other industry. It's a struggle for working parents," she told the outlet. "Whether you're making your second film or you're trying to get your first feature out, there's a time pressure. So anything that can afford you time, whether it's through childcare or getting it through to the second draft, and allows you...

Welcome to Deadline’s International Disruptors, a feature where we’ll shine a spotlight on key executives and companies outside of the U.S. who are shaking up the offshore marketplace. This week, we’re speaking with Korean super-agent Soyoung Lee, who represents some of the nation’s biggest stars and talked to us about her experiences of the Korean content boom.
