Tina Gharavi's Virginia Woolf's Night and Day will have its world premiere at SXSW London in June as the opening film. Deadline reported that the project is adapted by Gharavi, with screenwriter Justine Waddell, from Woolf's 1919 novel "revolving around the life of Katharine Hilbery, a high-born young woman who challenges the patriarchal society of the time to pursue her love of astronomy and life on her own terms."
Haley Bennett stars as Hilbery, joining a cast that includes Jack Whitehall, Jennifer Saunders, Lily Allen, Sally Phillips, and Misia Butler.
