Harry Styles Finds Himself in a Messy Love Triangle in the First Official Trailer for 'My Policeman'
The film is set in the 1950s.
UPDATE (September 8, 2022): Nearly three months after viewers got to see the first teaser for My Policeman, the first full trailer has been released, showing a different side of Harry Styles, who plays the titular role, AKA Tom, a closeted gay cop.
The trailer shows Tom conflicted between his marriage with Marion (Emma Corrin) and his budding romance with museum curator Patrick (David Dawson).
“I pity people who don’t know what it feels like to be this in love,” Patrick is heard telling Tom in voiceover. “Come with me, just you and I.”
My Policeman may possibly lend itself to a bigger conversation as the film, which is based on the novel by Bethan Roberts, is set in the 1950s. At the time, same-sex unions were illegal. Despite not being out yet, the movie has received rave reviews.
My Policeman is expected to premiere in theaters on October 21 and will be available to stream on Prime Video starting November 4.
Watch the first official trailer above.
ORIGINAL STORY (June 15, 2022): The first teaser trailer for My Policeman has been released, and it shows Harry Styles, who plays the titular role, having a gay awakening.
The clip gives a glimpse into his character’s complicated relationships. Styles portrays Tom, a closeted gay cop married to a woman, played by Emma Corrin. The film, which is based on Bethan Roberts’ novel of the same name, takes place in the 1950s, which means Tom’s eventual affair with Patrick (David Dawson) is technically illegal.
My Policeman marks Styles first-ever leading role. Previously, Styles made his acting debut in Christopher Nolan’s Dunkirk, which was released in 2017. The singer-slash-actor is also starring in Olivia Wilde‘s upcoming psychological thriller, Don’t Worry Darling, which is set to release on September 23.
My Policeman is slated to hit theaters on October 21. The film will be available to stream on Prime Video starting November 4.
