Exciting news for Colin Firth fans — our favourite leading man is back on set and doing what he does best. Production has officially begun in London on Bare, a highly anticipated new feature that unites Colin with Bridgerton breakout Florence Hunt and the wonderfully versatile Isla Fisher.
What makes this project particularly special is that Bare marks the feature directorial debut of Lorna Tucker, a filmmaker who has already proven herself a compelling storyteller through documentary work. Having a director of her calibre step into narrative fiction — with this calibre of cast — signals something genuinely worth watching.
For Colin, this adds yet another intriguing chapter to a career that has taken him from the rain-soaked romanticism of Pride and Prejudice to the political gravitas of The King's Speech, the charm of the Bridget Jones series, and the quiet devastation of A Single Man. He has always had an extraordinary gift for choosing projects that surprise us, and Bare looks very much in that tradition.
The fact that filming is already underway in London — Colin's home turf in many ways — only adds to our anticipation. We'll be keeping a very close eye on this one as it develops and will bring you updates as soon as they surface. Stay with us at Firth.com for everything Bare-related as the production unfolds.
