'BELLE' STAR STUDDED PERIOD DRAMA MOVIE
Today, you can also check out the first pictures from the period set drama BELLE which should open up in theatres sometime next year. The movie, which fillows the trials and tribulations of a mixed-race girl from the 18th century, has a rather stellar cast filled with stars: Gugu Mbatha-Raw is in the lead role joined by Miranda Richardson, Tom Wilkinson, Emily Watson, Sarah Gadon, Tom Felton and two British hunks Sam Reid and Matthew Goode. BELLE is inspired by the true story of Dido Elizabeth Belle (Gugu Mbatha-Raw), the illegitimate mixed race daughter of a Royal Navy Admiral. Raised by her aristocratic great-uncle Lord Mansfield (Tom Wilkinson) and his wife (Emily Watson), Belle's lineage affords her certain privileges, yet the color of her skin prevents her from fully participating in the traditions of her social standing. Left to wonder if she will ever find love, Belle falls for an idealistic young vicar's son bent on change who, with her help, shapes Lord Mansfield's role as Lord Chief Justice to end slavery in England.
