Ian McKellen and Helen Mirren’s London-set thriller is on TV tonight
As a seasoned gamer of both life and cinema, I must say that the prospect of watching Ian McKellen and Helen Mirren team up for the first time on screen is nothing short of a cinematic masterstroke. Having followed their illustrious careers independently, I can’t help but feel a sense of exhilaration at the thought of seeing these two titans share the screen in a thriller like “The Good Liar.
In 2019, Sir Ian McKellen and Dame Helen Mirren made their on-screen debut together in the suspenseful film “The Good Liar,” which was set in London.
According to the film adaptation titled after Nicholas Searle’s novel, the story revolves around a skilled swindler (portrayed by McKellen) who encounters a widow on an internet dating platform. As she appears to be smitten by his charm, her son becomes suspicious that something may not be entirely honest.
If you’re interested, tune in to BBC One tonight (November 19) at 11:10 PM for a viewing or re-watch of the movie The Good Liar.
No need to fret, it’s past the time for watching a movie on a work night. But don’t miss out! “The Good Liar” can be streamed on BBC iPlayer just after its airing. Typically, these movies stay available for around a month.
If you’re eagerly anticipating watching “The Good Liar“, you have the opportunity to stream it immediately if you’re a Netflix subscriber, in both the United Kingdom and Ireland.
Under the guidance of director Bill Condon (known for collaborating with McKellen in films like Mr. Holmes), this film boasts a talented cast including Russell Tovey, Jim Carter, Lucian Msamati, Celine Buckens, and Phil Dunster.
In the year 2019, Helen Mirren mentioned that collaborating with Ian McKellen on screen for the first time, as they had previously worked together on Broadway, was among the reasons she decided to join the cast of the thriller.
She shared with Entertainment Weekly that both her co-star, Ian McKellen, as well as the director, Bill Condon, played significant roles in making the project appealing. The script, she added, was intriguing and full of unexpected twists, making it an enjoyable challenge to bring the thriller to life.
It’s refreshing to create a movie centered around the elderly without focusing on Alzheimer’s or cancer; I hope you understand the sentiment.
Tonight, November 19th, “The Good Liar” is set to air at 11:10 PM on BBC One. You can catch it almost immediately afterward on BBC iPlayer.
