LOS ANGELES (Hollywood Reporter) – Veteran British actors Bob Hoskins and Jenny Agutter will star in a comedy-drama set during the Fleet Street print workers' strikes of the 1980s.
"Weighed In: The Story of the Mumper" concerns seven friends caught up in the industrial strife, which severely weakened Britain's labor movement. Sacha Bennett directs; shooting starts in the London area on Monday.
Hoskins stars in awards-season contender "Made in Dagenham," while Agutter is noted for such movies as "Walkabout" and "An American Werewolf in London."
