London Film Festival: James Norton, Bill Nighy & Thomasin McKenzie Netflix Drama ‘Joy’ Set For World Premiere
The film stars James Norton, Bill Nighy, and Thomasin McKenzie.
The pic will screen on October 15 at the Southbank Centre’s Royal Festival Hall with director Ben Taylor and cast members McKenzie, Norton, and Nighy confirmed to attend. The synopsis reads: Told through the perspective of Jean Purdy (McKenzie), a young nurse and embryologist, who joined forces with scientist Robert Edwards (Norton) and surgeon Patrick Steptoe (Nighy) to unlock the puzzle of infertility by pioneering in vitro fertilization (IVF). “This is a far too little-known story of British scientific achievement and it feels perfect to celebrate these three maverick pioneers – and their world-changing innovation of IVF – here at home.”
