Rebecca Ferguson’s Rom-Com Officially Scores a Major Boost From Greta Lee

A New Genre for Ferguson

Rebecca Ferguson is known for roles in Silo, the Dune trilogy and Mission: Impossible – Rogue Nation. Her latest film takes her into romantic comedy, a genre described as a new challenge for the actor.

Honeymoon/Funeral has wrapped production. Nahnatchka Khan directed the movie, Julia Bicknell wrote it, and Carrie Coon also stars alongside Ferguson and Lee.

Two Women Meet in Transit

Ferguson and Lee portray the film’s romantic leads. Their characters meet by chance while flying from Los Angeles to London. One woman is making the trip for her honeymoon alone after her fiancé left her at the altar. The other is traveling to attend her late mother’s funeral.

Lee Praises the Script

Greta Lee discussed the project while speaking about the home release of Late Fame. She described working with Ferguson and Coon positively and praised Bicknell’s screenplay. Lee called the co-stars “dreamy” and said the script was “funny, heartbreaking” and sexier than she had expected.

Fans Await Ferguson’s Next Move

With Silo and Dune nearing their conclusions, audiences are looking ahead to Ferguson’s next projects. Honeymoon/Funeral offers a change from the science-fiction roles that have helped establish her profile.

The film’s story brings together two people at difficult turning points in their lives. Lee’s comments offer an early glimpse of its tone, while no release date is stated.
