Rami Malek steps into the world of espionage in his latest thriller, The Amateur, but filming in one of the world’s most heavily surveilled cities has only heightened his own sense of “paranoia”.

The Oscar-winning actor stars as Charlie Heller, a CIA cryptographer whose wife, Sarah—played by The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel star Rachel Brosnahan—is killed in a terrorist attack in London.
