James Norton’s new movie confirms earlier UK screenings ahead of Netflix release

As a film enthusiast with a soft spot for British cinema, I am absolutely thrilled about James Norton’s new film, “Joy,” making its world premiere at the 68th BFI London Film Festival! With my years of experience attending movie premieres and screenings, I can confidently say that this is an event not to be missed.


The upcoming movie titled “Joy” by James Norton will debut globally at the 68th BFI London Film Festival. Moreover, there will be sneak peeks of the film in certain UK theaters before its official release.

The movie, featuring Bill Nighy along with Thomasin McKenzie from “Last Night in Soho” and “The Power of the Dog”, will premiere at London’s Southbank Centre on October 15th. Additional screenings are planned for the same day and time at nine cinema venues across the UK that are part of the Festival.

Some fortunate viewers will have the opportunity to watch the movie a full month ahead of its scheduled UK theatrical premiere on November 15, as well as before its confirmed Netflix debut on November 22.

The narrative, titled “Joy,” focuses on the groundbreaking event of the world’s first ‘lab-grown baby,’ recounting the authentic tale of Louise Joy Brown, the pioneer who became the first person born through In Vitro Fertilization (IVF), and the decade-long odyssey leading up to this historic moment.

Director Ben Taylor expressed his heartfelt gratitude as he announced that his first movie, titled “Joy“, is set to make its global debut at this year’s British Film Institute (BFI) London Film Festival.

“This lesser-known tale of British scientific triumph deserves recognition, and there couldn’t be a better place than right here, to honor these three groundbreaking innovators who revolutionized In Vitro Fertilization (IVF).”
