will put a modern spin on Shakespeare’s Henry IV and Henry V in the 15th century. The story follows a young prince who is forced into the role of monarch against his will after his brother’s death. Despite not wanting to take on the position, Prince Hal learns to be a King amongst “palace politics, chaos and war his father left behind”.Under the direction of Animal Kingdom’s David Michod, Timothée takes on the role of disgraced Prince Hal, while Lily plays Catherine of Valois.
“It’s always exciting to work with somebody who you know has given themselves so wholeheartedly to their role and is so invested,” Lily said when asked about working with Timothée. “It can be nerve-wracking to work with people whose talent you admire so much, but hopefully it can only make things better.”In the trailer for the forthcoming historical drama, Timothée's King Henry V is seen expressing his concerns to friend and mentor John Falstaff.
