My Policeman trailer: Harry Styles and David Dawson promise a heart-wrenching story of forbidden love and remorse

1 min read

Amazon Prime Video on Wednesday dropped the trailer of the movie My Policeman, starring Harry Styles, Emma Corrin and David Dawson within the lead roles. The trailer sees Harry taking part in the position of a closeted cop named Tom, in Nineteen Fifties UK, married to a lady Marion, whereas really he’s in love with arts curator, Patrick.

At the start of the trailer, we see a seemingly blissful marriage that will get shredded in time as Tom and Patrick’s affair grows extra intense. The trailer is stuffed with love, and subsequent heartbreak, loss and remorse. There are a number of time jumps within the movie, with Tom’s character later performed by Linus Roache and Marion portrayed by Gina McKee.

My Policeman is directed by Michael Grandage. Talking in regards to the character of Tom, Michael had earlier advised Vanity Fair, “It’s made more problematic by the fact that he’s a policeman, and he’s in a career that is about upholding the law. And the law in the country at the time is about everything he feels — the complexity of it is something that whoever was going to play younger Tom and older Tom needed to somehow understand and absorb.”

My Policeman will launch on Amazon Prime Video on November 4.
