BFF26 The Uprising

From Academy Award-nominated director Paul Greengrass (The Bourne Ultimatum) comes THE UPRISING, a visceral historical action drama inspired by the true events of the 1381 Peasants’ Revolt. In an England ravaged by plague, poverty and growing distrust of the Crown, Academy Award nominee Andrew Garfield (We Live in Time BFF24) stars as the Ploughman, a common labourer driven to breaking point by devastating personal loss. As unrest sweeps across the country, he emerges as the unlikely leader of a ferocious rebellion against the tyranny of King Richard II, rallying thousands of ordinary people in a fight for justice, dignity and survival. Joining Garfield is an acclaimed British ensemble cast including BAFTA winners Jamie Bell (Billy Elliot), Stephen Dillane (The Tunnel) and Tom Hollander (Pride & Prejudice), alongside Cosmo Jarvis (Warfare), Thomasin McKenzie (Jojo Rabbit) and Jonny Lee Miller (Trainspotting). As rage and rebellion tear through England, THE UPRISING transforms a defining act of resistance into a clash between the ruling elite and those with nothing left to lose.
