Exclusive: Laurence Spellman (Ready Player One) and Laura Bayston (Killing Eve) are leading the cast of UK indie The Wife And Her House Husband, a two-hander from Papadopolous & Sons filmmaker Marcus Markou.
Pic tells the story of a couple, Cassie (Laura Bayston) and Matthew (Laurence Spellman), falling back in love during a divorce. At their final mediation session, Cassie produces a letter, written 30 years before to their future selves, titled “in the event of any future separation”. The letter states that if they should ever split, they will firstly follow a list of instructions they compiled during the early days of dating.
Filming is now underway on the movie in London. It is produced by Muireann Price (Love me till Monday) for Double M Films.
“Whilst we know it’s been a tough time for the industry, for independent movies it’s been almost impossible given the extra overheads and restrictions.

After premiering at last year’s London Film Festival, Love me till Monday finally makes its way to UK cinemas this week. Directed by TV veteran Justin Hardy, this likeable rom-com owes much to a compelling central performance by Georgia Maguire, in her feature film debut.
The film follows Maguire’s Becky, a gauche graduate looking after her younger brother whilst searching for love in a dead-end office job. Initially she is pining for hunky colleague Him (Royce Pierreson) but when that doesn’t work out she ends up in a relationship with her boss Steve (Tim Plester), who will only date her on weekends.
Though there are some plot elements here that feel generic, Love me till Monday does an excellent job of capturing the reality of post-Uni life, from Becky having moved back in with her mother to the banality of office work. The repeating of certain plot...

★☆☆☆☆The ongoing digital revolution that has released the means of film production into the hands of the recently graduated reaches it's next obvious low point with the release of British director Justin Hardy's Love Me Till Monday (2013). A painful 89 minutes of banality and boredom ensues in this misfiring attempt at understanding the contemporary experience of lowly recent graduates working in McJobs while searching through one night stands for any vague semblance of a meaningful relationship. The film's synopsis outlines a group of twentysomethings who, while on the look out for love, "dance ironically in circles, drink far too much and snog a friend...they eat cheesy chips or cold quiche at 3am."...
