The second project for Daniel Craig in the coming months will be Flashbacks of a Fool as he will play a fading Hollywood star for Baillie Walsh. Also starring in the film is Helen McCrory, Olivia Williams, Emilia Fox and Eve as filming begins May 28 in South Africa and London.
The film marks Walsh’s writing and directing debut as it tells the story of a hedonistic British actor whose Hollywood career is starting to nosedive as he hits his 40s. The death of his best friend from his English seaside childhood causes him to journey back home for the funeral, and prompts flashbacks to his teenage experiences, including the tragedy that forced him to flee for a new life.
