Show Notes
Freya Allan is stepping away from magic and monsters to embody 1960s pop icon Marianne Faithfull in Faithfull, a biopic charting the singer’s rise, fall, and comeback. Directed by Tove filmmaker Zaida Bergroth, the film will explore Faithfull’s turbulent journey, from her hit “As Tears Go By” and high-profile romance with Mick Jagger to addiction, homelessness, and eventual resurgence with Broken English. Sex Education’s Jojo Macari will portray Jagger. Currently in pre-production and pitched at the European Film Market, Faithfull promises a deep dive into music history, though bittersweetly following the singer’s passing in January 2025.
