Emma Corrin will star opposite Harry Styles in Amazon’s adaptation of My Policeman.

The British actor, who earlier this week was nominated for a Golden Globe and SAG Award for her turn as Princess Diana in The Crown, will appear alongside Styles in a film adaptation of Bethan Roberts’ 2012 novel.

Tony and Olivier award-winner Michael Grandage will direct the film, which has been written by Ron Nyswaner.

Set in Brighton in the 1950s and 1990s, My Policeman centres around a love triangle between married couple, Tom (Styles) and Marion (Corrin), and a policeman.

The film is the latest in Styles’s acting ventures, with the former One Direction singer having appeared in Dunkirk in 2017 and set to star in the forthcoming drama Don’t Worry Darling opposite Florence Pugh.

Corrin was meanwhile considered one of the break-out stars of The Crown series four for her portrayal of a young Diana.

On Thursday (4 February), the actor shared a video to social media of the moment she found out she’d been nominated for a Golden Globe, with the 24-year-old screaming and jumping around her living room.
