The story follows Copperfield in the 1840's as he navigates a chaotic world to find his elusive place within it. From his unhappy childhood to the discovery of his gift as a storyteller and writer, all the while on a journey full of life, colour and humanity. Dickens actually modelled the character after himself. You can also see Aneurin Barnard in the photos,

We continue with casting news coming from Cannes today with always delightful Ezra Miller who has just been cast as young Salvador Dali in DALI LAND which will also star Ben Kingsley, Lesley Manville, Tim Roth and Frank Dillane!

Set in New York and Spain in 1973, the story is told through the eyes of James (Dillane), a young gallery assistant who helps Dal� prepare for a big show. While James hopes to learn some of the secrets of great art from one of the 20th century�s greatest painters, he instead falls down a rabbit hole of glittering parties, personal battles, and an art world awash with money and drama. Kingsley is the older Dali, Manville is Dali�s domineering wife, and Roth his right-hand man. After you see Ezra Milller in Fantastic Beasts sequel you will also watch him in The Flash movie.
