Since things are super slow around Holly’s career, I’m taking this time to update the gallery and still finishing off the not yet open Holly’s closet. Hopefully will open that page in the end of the year, currently still gathering information on Holly’s outfits, which is super time consuming! Anyway, enjoy 6 brand new production stills from Patrick Melrose where Holly played Bridget Watson Scott.
Hope everyone is doing well during this time.
After premiering at the Sundance Film Festival in 2019 and screening around the world at other fests, including Adelaide, Galway, Melbourne, and Stockholm, Sophie Hyde’s “Animals” has locked in a permanent North American home. The dramedy, starring Alia Shawkat and Holliday Grainger as a pair of long-time best friends at a crossroads, has been snapped up for a fall digital and VOD release by Freestyle Digital Media, the digital film distribution division of Byron Allen’s Entertainment Studios.
“Animals” will be available to rent and own on DVD and North American digital HD internet, cable, and satellite platforms on November 10.
We sure can’t say Holly isn’t working! Latest news say that Holly narrates the latest Dolly Alderton audiobook: Ghosts is Dolly’s most recent novel. According to the Amazon release, Holly narrates over 10 hours of Ghosts!
Ghosts tells the story of Nina Dean, who has arrived at her early 30s as a successful food writer with loving friends and family, plus a new home and neighbourhood. When she meets Max, a beguiling romantic hero who tells her on date one that he’s going to marry her, it feels like all is going to plan…
The novel is about love and memory, ageing and identity, dads and dating, friends and family and friends with families, filled with whip-smart observations about relationships, family, memory, home and how we live now.
It’s due to be released in hardback on 15 October, but fans will be able to download the audiobook version a week earlier.
“Dolly Alderton’s writing is incredibly intimate, tender, and observant,” Grainger said in a statement. “Ghosts is a fantastic novel about friendship, family, and love, that felt incredibly real to me. It was an honour to be part of Nina’s story, and I hope listeners enjoy the audiobook as much as I enjoyed recording it.’
Alderton added: “I am a huge fan of Holliday Grainger, so it is such an honour to have her voice bring life to the audiobook of Ghosts.”
The audio edition of Ghosts will be released for digital download on 8 October 2020. You can pre-order it here.
Thank you to our friend at Simply Claes for the heads up that Holliday is voicing Emily Tennyson for BBC’s new radio show Elegies. The first episode will be up tomorrow, October 4th, at 15:00 on BBC Radio 4. The episode will last close to an hour (57 minutes) and is divided in two parts:
A two-part drama telling the stories behind two of the greatest and most influential poetic elegies ever published in English – Milton’s Lycidas and Tennyson’s In Memoriam.
Part 1. Milton’s Lycidas
Although written two centuries apart, in 1637 and 1833, the making and circumstances of these great elegies are full of interconnections and are centred on the poetic response to grief and loss. Milton’s Lycidas is the first great elegy in English poetry. Both Lycidas and In Memoriam were written in response to the sudden unexpected death of a young male friend, striking the poets in their mid-twenties. when the poets were students at Cambridge. The dead men were prodigiously gifted and also poets, early rivals and first readers to the poets who elegised them.
Milton and Tennyson were thereby thrown into personal grief and poetic challenge, but how to make a poetic elegy that honours and reflects that genuine grief whilst rising to the challenge of the first great poetic subject in these young poets’ lives? Milton and Tennyson responded to these complex and terrible circumstances with radically different elegies that stand among the finest poems in English literature.
Elegies was written and adapted from Lycidas by John Milton by Michael Symmons Roberts
Last year, Holliday featured Sundance Film Festival to premier Animals. Now, brand new outtakes from that photoshoot have surfaced:
