Olivia Colman, known for her roles in Netflix hit series The Crown and film The Favourite, has revealed the conversation she had with a much younger actor while filming a love scene. The actress is appearing on The Graham Norton Show on New Year's Eve to promote the new romantic drama she is starring in, called Empire of Light.
While chatting to Graham about Empire of Light, Olivia spoke about filming with Micheal Ward, who appears beside her on the orange sofa.
Empire of Light follows an interracial love story in the 1980s. Olivia plays Hilary Small and Micheal plays Stephen, with their characters falling in love with each other. At one point the pair with a 23-year age gap had to film a romantic scene.
