    PRINCIPAL PHOTOGRAPHY BEGINS ON RUPERT EVERETT’S DIRECTORIAL DEBUT THE HAPPY PRINCE London, 20th September 2016 Principal Photography has commenced on the feature film THE HAPPY PRINCE on location in Thurnau, Bavaria Germany. The film tells the story of Oscar Wilde’s life in exile, and will also shoot in France, Belgium and Italy.

Joining Rupert in front of the camera is an award-winning cast including, Colin Firth (The King’s Speech) Edwin Thomas (Churchill: 100 Days That Saved Britain), Colin Morgan (Merlin), Emily Watson (Theory of Everything), Tom Wilkinson (The Grand Budapest Hotel), Miranda Richardson (Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 1), Beatrice Dalle (Betty Blue), and John Standing (The Elephant Man). THE HAPPY PRINCE tells the story of the last days of Oscar Wilde. This great man of letters, once one of the most famous authors in England, is now a superstar on the skids. As Oscar lies on his death bed, the past comes flooding back to him, transporting him to other times and places. The film is produced by maze pictures and Entre Chien et Loup in co-production with Palomar and in association with BBC Films, Beta Cinema, Lionsgate UK, Concorde Filmverleih, Dreamtouch, Raindog Films, Movie Management Corporation, Zielke GmbH, Daryl Prince Productions, Strat et Go International and co-produced by cine plus Filmproduktion, Tele München Group, RTBF (Télévision belge) and Proximus.

  • The Happy Prince
    — PRESS KIT — The Happy Prince A FILM BY RUPERT EVERETT SYNOPSIS The Happy Prince In a cheap Parisian hotel room Oscar Wilde lies on his death bed and the past floods back, transporting him to other times and places. Was he once the most famous man in London? The artist crucified by a society that once worshipped him? The lover imprisoned and freed, yet still running towards ruin in the final chapter of his life? Under the microscope of death he reviews the failed attempt to reconcile with his long suffering wife Constance, the ensuing reprisal of his fatal love affair with Lord Alfred Douglas and the warmth and devotion of Robbie Ross who tried and failed to save him from himself. From Dieppe to Naples to Paris freedom is elusive and Oscar is a penniless vagabond, always moving on, shunned by his old acquaintance, but revered by a strange group of outlaws and urchins to whom he tells the old stories - his incomparable wit still sharp. THE HAPPY PRINCE is a portrait of the dark side of a genius who lived and died for love in the last days of the nineteenth century. 2 FACTSHEET The Happy Prince CAST ( IN ALPHABETICAL ORDER ) PRODUCERS SÉBASTIEN DELLOYE, PHILIPP KREUZER Oscar Wilde RUPERT EVERETT JÖRG SCHULZE Reggie Turner COLIN FIRTH Alfred Bosie Douglas COLIN MORGAN CO-PRODUCERS Robbie Ross EDWIN THOMAS CARLO DEGLI ESPOSTI, NICOLA SERRA Constance Wilde EMILY WATSON FRANK EVERS Felice’s Mother FRANCA ABATEGIOVANNI Mr Howard ALISTER CAMERON PRODUCTION Mrs Arbuthnott ANNA CHANCELLOR MAZE PICTURES, ENTRE CHIEN ET LOUP Maurice Gilbert TOM

  • THE HAPPY PRINCE Written and Directed by RUPERT EVERETT
    15 JUNE CINEMA RELEASE DATE ANNOUNCED FOR THE HAPPY PRINCE Written and Directed by RUPERT EVERETT Starring RUPERT EVERETT COLIN FIRTH COLIN MORGAN EDWIN THOMAS EMILY WATSON THE HAPPY PRINCE, written and directed by, as well as starring, Rupert Everett, opens in cinemas across the UK on 15 June. Its UK premiere is set for 28 March as part of the BFI Flare: London LGBTQ+ Film Festival, following world and European premieres at the Sundance and Berlin film festivals. The final years of Oscar Wilde, and the ghosts that haunted him, are vividly evoked in Everett’s directorial debut. The film features a stellar supporting cast of British actors including Colin Firth (The King’s Speech, A Single Man), Emily Watson (On Chesil Beach, Gosford Park), Colin Morgan (The Fall, Testament of Youth) and Edwin Thomas (Endeavour). Building from his own 2012 lauded stage portrayal of Wilde in David Hare’s The Judas Kiss, Everett physically and emotionally embodies the literary genius as he lives out his last days in exile in Europe, in a performance described by critics as “flawless” and “the best thing Everett has done”. The film opens in Paris, where Wilde, by now in his forties, penniless and in poor health, is still reeling after being imprisoned in England for his love affair with Lord Alfred ‘Bosie’ Douglas (Morgan). Out of prison but a pariah, Wilde swings between grief and a determination to wrest whatever pleasure and beauty he can from the time he has left. His body ailing and heavy, his mind spinning, he survives by falling back on the flamboyant irony and brilliant wit that defined him.
