Amazon Prime Video has released the first official trailer for My Policeman starring Harry Styles.
The film, based on the bestselling novel of the same name by Bethan Roberts, stars Styles as a closeted policeman in 1950s Brighton who marries a schoolteacher named Marion (Emma Corrin) and begins an affair with a museum curator (David Dawson). At a time when being gay is forbidden, the secret threatens to ruin their lives.
My Policeman is directed by Michael Grandage from a screenplay penned by Oscar-winning Philadelphia writer Ron Nyswaner. The movie is told over two timelines, and Linus Roache, Gina McKee, and Rupert Everett play an older version of the trio in the 1990s.
"This love is all-consuming, I pity people who don't know what it feels like to be this in love," Styles can be heard saying in the trailer, though we don't know which lover he's referring to.
The film marks the pop star's second leading role, the first being Don't Worry Darling – which just had its global premiere at the Venice Film Festival among a plethora of other interesting events. Styles also briefly appeared in the post-credits scene of Eternals, introducing himself as Starfox to Angelina Jolie's Thena.
