- Adele, 37, will co-star alongside a notable cast including Colin Firth, Hunter Schafer, Nicholas Hoult, Aaron Taylor-Johnson and Paul Bettany.
- The drama is set in 18th-century Italy and follows the story of two male sopranos in the world of opera.
- This acting role comes after Adele concluded her Las Vegas residency last November, announcing an indefinite hiatus from music to focus on her personal life.
