Buckley and Mescal reunite
THE LOST DAUGHTER stars Jessie Buckley and Paul Mescal are set to reunite for an adaption of the book HAMNET, with Chloé Zhao on directing duties. The historical fiction novel reimagines the story of William Shakespeare’s wife Agnes, who is left struggling to come to terms following the death of her only son Hamnet. The book has earned O’Farrell critical praise for her work, winning the 2020 Women’s Prize for Fiction and the Fiction Prize at the National Book Critics Circle Awards.
