Harry Styles (birthname: Harry Edward Styles), as both the co-founder of the mega-group One Direction and a superstar solo artist, is a brand name in the pop music world but is just getting going in the movies. Still, he has already begun to amass impressive and interesting credits. For example, soon after he launched his solo career, Styles was plucked by filmmaker Christopher Nolan for a lead role in his brilliant WW2 epic, Dunkirk (2017).
It immediately established Styles as a serious-minded actor working in a highly prestigious filmmaking environment; the casting recalled such cases as director Nicolas Roeg casting Mick Jagger in Performance (1970), David Bowie in The Man Who Fell to Earth (1976), Richard Attenborough casting John Lennon in Oh! What a Lovely War (1969), and Dennis Hopper cast singer-songwriter Kris Kristofferson in The Last Movie (1971).
After appearing briefly in a cameo in Chloe Zhao’s MCU movie, Eternals (2021), Harry Styles was cast as the co-lead opposite Florence Pugh and Chris Pine in Olivia Wilde’s feminist thriller, Don’t Worry Darling (2022), world-premiering in an out-of-competition slot at the 2022 edition of the Venice Film Festival.
Styles’ second major 2022 feature is the Michael Grandage/Ron Nyswaner adaptation of Bethan Roberts’ book, My Policeman, with Emma Corrin, David Dawson, Gina McKee, Linus Roache, and Rupert Everett, released theatrically by Amazon Studios after premiering at the Toronto Film Festival, which is honoring Styles, Corrin, and Dawson with the TIFF Tribute Award (going for the first time to an ensemble of actors).
