Emma Thompson To Headline Comedy ‘Good Luck To You, Leo Grande’

To make things right, the ex-teacher devises a plan and hires the services of Leo Grande, a sex worker – or “sex therapist”, as he puts it – in his early 20s for a night of bliss. Hyde, known for movies such as “Animals” and “52 Tuesdays”, will direct the feature from a script by Katy Brand. “I’m thrilled to be working with the tremendously funny and heartbreakingly honest Emma Thompson to explore intimacy and desire, and to put on screen a relationship that feels unexpected and delightful,” the director said.

“At a time when our need for each other is so vividly present, it will be a delight to create and show this connection between two people, which is funny, sexy and moving,” she added.
