Blitz – TRAILER

As a cinephile with a soft spot for historical dramas and a keen eye for exceptional storytelling, I find myself utterly intrigued by the trailer for “Blitz.” The combination of Steve McQueen’s directorial prowess, Saoirse Ronan’s captivating acting talent, and the enchanting backdrop of World War II London has me eagerly awaiting its release.


The new movie by director Sir Steve McQueen, titled “Blitz,” is out now and seems poised for more accolades in the awards season.

I, as a supporter of the film Blitz, recount its gripping narrative that chronicles the odyssey of George, a 9-year-old boy living in London during World War II, played by Elliott Heffernan. His mother Rita, portrayed by Saoirse Ronan, makes the heart-wrenching decision to send him away for safety in the English countryside. Filled with defiance and an unwavering desire to reunite with his beloved mother and grandfather Gerald (Paul Weller) in East London, George embarks on a perilous adventure. Simultaneously, Rita frantically searches for her missing son, adding another layer of tension to this moving tale.

As a film enthusiast, I can’t wait to see the upcoming movie directed by the illustrious McQueen, who has won both Academy and BAFTA awards! This masterpiece features Saoirse Ronan, a BAFTA-nominated actress, alongside newcomer Heffernan. The cast also includes Harris Dickinson, Benjamin Clementine, Kathy Burke, Weller, Stephen Graham, Leigh Gill, Mica Ricketts, CJ Beckford, Alex Jennings, Joshua McGuire, Hayley Squires, Erin Kellyman, and Sally Messham. This film is being produced by McQueen’s Lammas Park, along with Tim Bevan and Eric Fellner from Working Title Films, Arnon Milchan, Yariv Milchan, and Michael Schaefer for New Regency, with Anita Overland and Adam Somner serving as producers. I’m truly excited to witness this cinematic journey!

McQueen works alongside production designer Adam Stockhausen, costume designer Jacqueline Durran, composer Hans Zimmer, cinematographer Yorick Le Saux, and makeup artist Naomi Donne again. These individuals have collaborated on notable projects such as “12 Years a Slave,” a remarkable adaptation, “Widows,” “Small Axe,” “Little Women,” and “No Time to Die.

Here, an outstanding ensemble graces the screen, headed by Saoirse Ronan. They include Elliott Heffernan, Harris Dickinson, Benjamin Clementine, Kathy Burke, Paul Weller, Stephen Graham, Leigh Gill, Mica Ricketts, CJ Beckford, Alex Jennings, Joshua McGuire, Hayley Squires, Erin Kellyman, and Sally Messham.
