Lily James shares a glimpse into her trip to Kenya with her close pal Bart Edwards on a wildlife conservation mission to protect elephants
As a film enthusiast who has spent countless hours immersed in the silver screen, I find myself thoroughly intrigued by the latest announcement of Lily’s involvement in Swiped. This American biopic drama tells a captivating story that resonates with our times – the journey of Whitney Wolfe Herd, co-founder of Tinder, who bravely navigated through adversity to create Bumble, one of the world’s most popular dating apps.
In the past few weeks, Lily James has immersed herself in one of her deepest interests by volunteering for a wildlife preservation project in Kenya.
On Monday, the actress, aged 35, disclosed to her Instagram audience about the collaborative projects she’s been working on with her good friend, Bart Edwards, through a new post.
Lily Allen, portraying Pamela Anderson in the series, posted a sequence of photos showcasing her journey across the countryside. In a Jeep, she traversed through parks and paused to gaze upon the expansive mountain vistas.
As an utterly smitten admirer, I found myself captivated by a single image that showcased my beloved Lily gracefully resting atop a verdant 4×4 vehicle, emblazoned with the emblem of the Loisaba Conservancy. During this momentary respite, she paused to take in the breathtaking surroundings, a brief interlude in her tireless dedication to conservation.
Lily donned cream pants and a gray waistcoat, with half of her rich-brown tresses concealed beneath a cap, she flashed a warm grin at the camera.
In a different picture, the actress appeared to be at ease, gazing at the mountains from her shaded seat.
The ambassador strategically included several photos and videos of elephants within her Instagram update, aiming to attract interest towards her campaign.
She’s now serving as the most recent Global Ambassador for the wildlife conservation organization, Space For Giants. During this assignment, she teamed up with Bart Edwards, known for his role in The Witcher, on their journey.
In her recent update, she expressed her pride in backing the “Protect their Pathways’ Campaign by @spaceforgiants on World Elephant Day.
While working alongside the SFG team, I gained insights into numerous dangers elephants encounter, such as habitat destruction and resource competition, which in turn threatens their living spaces. If we don’t act swiftly to safeguard them, there is a real danger of these magnificent creatures disappearing completely from our world.

‘Thank you so much x’
The actress’ social media post comes after she updated her fans last week on her Kenyan travels.
Lily revealed some details about her journey by posting pictures from the summit of a mountain where she was sipping a hot beverage, along with jotting down notes in her journal.
She appeared youthful and radiant, snuggling into a chair adorned with Kenyan patterns, offering a panoramic view of the expansive, breathtaking scenery around her.
At that moment, Lily expressed her gratitude by saying, “It’s an immense privilege to stand as a Space For Giants Global Supporter. I am committed to assisting them in their mission to safeguard Africa’s remaining natural habitats teeming with large wild creatures, and the people whose livelihoods rely on this land.”
Lily went on to share: “This year, I was fortunate enough to explore several key wildlife sanctuaries rehabilitated and safeguarded by Space for Giants in Kenya.”
In over 90% of Africa’s approximately 8,400 protected landscapes, there is no financial support, and numerous natural ecosystems lack any protection whatsoever under the immense weight of human pressures. Consequently, iconic wildlife species like elephants, rhinos, and big cats are facing severe threats.
‘The work that Space for Giants does is, therefore, more important than ever.’
Dr. Max Graham, CEO and Founder of Space for Giants, expressed his deep appreciation: “We’re incredibly thankful that Lily has agreed to fill this crucial position, helping us protect Africa’s final untouched natural habitats and their majestic wildlife.”
Space For Giants warmly invites Lily on board, reinforcing their longstanding dedication to preserving Africa’s natural wonders across ten different nations. Lily joins our global conservation initiatives as an invaluable asset.
During her trip to Kenya, one project that Lily came across as part of Space For Giants was the initiative to re-introduce 21 eastern black rhinos into the Loisaba Wildlife Reserve.
The rhinos had previously been on the brink of extinction due to poaching for over half a century.
Lily mused, “If it weren’t for Space For Giants’ dedicated efforts each day, our kids might only encounter these magnificent creatures through the pages of books.”
The announcement comes as Lily continues to film American biopic drama Swiped.
Tells the tale of Whitney Wolfe Herd, who was compelled to depart from the globally renowned dating app, Tinder, following unwanted sexual advances from a coworker.
Following her departure from Tinder, Whitney (age 35) established Bumble alongside other founders. This app stands out globally due to its unique “women-first” policy, making it the second most popular dating platform in the world today.
Additionally, the cast includes Jackson White, Dan Stevens, Ben Schnetzer, Myha’la Herrold (from Bodies Bodies Bodies).
In this production, Rachel Lee Goldenberg serves as the director. She’s known for her work on Valley Girl and an episode of The Mindy Project, a sitcom created by Mindy Kaling.
Lily is one of the creators whose work on Swiped will be released for streaming on Hulu, which will be handled by 20th Century Studios in the United States.
Swiped will be released sometime in 2025, and its principal photography began on May 15.
The movie was officially unveiled in March, with the screenplay penned jointly by directors Rachel and Bill Parker, as well as Kim Caramele. The production house for this film, Swiped, belongs to Ethea Entertainment.
At the moment, Lily is working on two films that are currently being edited: the comedy-mystery titled “Greedy People,” featuring Joseph Gordon-Levitt, and another project called “EastEnders” starring Himesh Patel, which falls under the thriller genre. The second film also includes Riz Ahmed and Sam Worthington in its cast. Another movie is named “Relay.”
