New Promos from My Week With Marilyn

Three new promotional images of Emma Watson from My Week with Marilyn were released on FilmWeb.no today. The photos show Emma as Lucy in several costumes, and Eddie Redmayne as Colin Clark.

 


This next one came out several days ago. The last one we’ve posted before, but it’s now higher resolution, and less cropping.

 

After a positive response at the New York Film Festival, The Weinstein Company has delayed the theatrical release to coincide with the Thanksgiving Day weekend, and will open on November 23 in the US (and January 13 in Norway according to FilmWeb).

 

Synopsis:
In the early summer of 1956, 23 year-old Colin Clark, just down from Oxford and determined to make his way in the film business, worked as a lowly assistant on the set of “THE PRINCE AND THE SHOWGIRL”, the film that united Sir Laurence Olivier with Marilyn Monroe, who, whilst shooting, was also on honeymoon with her new husband, the playwright Arthur Miller.

Nearly 40 years on, his diary account “THE PRINCE, THE SHOWGIRL AND ME” was published, but one week was missing, and this is the story of that week: an idyll in which he escorted a Monroe desperate to get away from her retinue of Hollywood hangers-on and the pressures of working. When Arthur Miller makes a brief trip to Paris, the coast is clear for Colin to introduce her to some of the pleasures of British life.

The collision of the two worlds – old England and new Hollywood – is as incongruous as it is delightful. Slowly Marilyn begins to shake off the dark fog of insecurity and fear always hovering around her. She reacts with lovely naturalness to this alien world and as she relaxes she offers Colin fleeting insights into her own background – one of family madness, single-minded ambition and uninhibited sexuality. Simply and without self-pity, she relates the tale of her rise to the top in Hollywood; a story involving abuse of one form or another at the hands of almost every man she has ever known, abuse that has left her with only the thinnest of protective layers.

She is not without her contradictions – everyone wants something from her, but she too is fixated on the life she has chosen and is quite unable to leave it, even though the pressure is crushing her…
… and yet, for a moment, lost in the English countryside, it seems she might finally escape.

 

Emma plays Lucy, a wardrobe girl on the movie set, love-interest of Colin. Emma says about her character, “Lucy has experience on set, whereas to Colin Clark the film world is all new, shiny and exciting. She is very wary about Assistant Directors and she knows how these films run, but she‟s still a bit naïve and innocent. Even though at first she‟s very careful of Colin, she falls for him and ends up getting hurt.”

  3. berlin says:

    Yeah, beautiful but her dress looks strange.

  4. greendayfan says:

    Aww she looks so cute!! I LOVE the third dress! I thought the wig would look bad, judging by the first promo they released, but it looks really good in these ones!

  5. greendayfan says:

    By the way, do we know how old Lucy is supposed to be?

    • dook says:

      I don’t think I’ve seen anything mentioned about Lucy’s age. Clark was 23 at the time and described Lucy as “one of the prettiest little girls I have ever seen” which might indicate she was younger. On the other hand, Lucy already had experience working on film sets while Colin was fresh out of school. Of course, Lucy could have started working at 16 or something. Interesting question. My guess is a little younger than Colin.

  6. Jason says:

    Emma is so beautiful, it’s just amazing. They can put her in clothes from any historical period, and she’s still beautiful. She would look great dressed in a Victorian floor length dress, carrying a parasol! Or even better, as a 1920’s flapper.

    • Joyce says:

      We’ve already seen her as a flapper. The Ellen Von Unwerth shoot. And you’re right, it was beautiful

  7. jessica says:

  11. Spencer says:

    she looks absolutely gorgeous, wish her role was bigger, but i’ll just have to wait for more movies featuring her in the future. I hope she just sticks with school though until she finishes….Man she is incredible!

  12. Emma says:

  14. susangbhatt says:

  15. sarah says:

    Awesome photos!! I love her character already, after reading more about her. But it saddens me that she’s going to be broken-hearted!! 🙁 I know that Colin Clark will come back to her in the end, but still. Who else agrees?

  16. ariadne says:

    She’s so pretty and cute.

  17. Emily says:

    Random Question: Does anyone know Emma’s private facebook name? I’m just curious what it is.

    • Joyce says:

      She doesn’t, and has never had a private facebook. Purely because she wants a private life. And because people go around trying to delve into it un-invited.

  18. emlover says:

  19. Joanne says:

    Emma is the best always!an amazing girl that another time did the best!

  20. Iris says:

    I love these dresses from the 1950’s! I wish they’d become popular again.

  21. tabitoo says:

    Let me just say that Emma looks great in blue, she should wear it more often. Also just found on youtube a vid I’ve never seen before that’s a behind the scenes of DH part 2. It has a lot of inside info from Emma, Dan, and Rupert. Some funny stuff and heart felt stuff.
    See it on youtube. “Harry Potter (Deathly Hallows 2) Behind the Magic” it’s very nice.

  22. Myrskytuuli says:

    Dark brown hair looks fabulous (:

  23. Nicole says:

    Love these promos 🙂 i’m getting excited! 😀

  24. WillowofNarnia says:

    What photoshoot is the picture from the Elle Canada mag from?

  25. KS987 says:

    Emma’s stunningly beautiful as Lucy. 🙂 When I first heard about the delay I thought “it’s Half-Blood Prince all over again”(though not nearly as long of a delay). Can’t wait to see her in this film, even if her role is brief compared to her other ones.

  26. Sapphire says:

    Does anyone know if it possible to find the blue dress anywhere? or a similar style? :]

    • WillowofNarnia says:

      You can try looking on Etsy. 🙂 They have a lot of that era clothing. 🙂

    • Joyce says:

      Um, I can’t tell you when, but if you go on dresslikeemma.net and leave a comment requesting a guide to these clothes, they should be up there pretty soon. It’s the most updated dress like emma website, they do EVERYTHING there.

  27. Alisha says:
