12 September 2010
Hollywood royalty Helen Mirren sizzled as she posed for pictures at the premiere for her new film 'The Tempest' at the 67th Venice Film Festival in Italy yesterday.
Directed by Julie Taymor, 'The Tempest' centres around Prospera and her daughter Miranda and a shipwrecked crew full of Prospera's enemies. The Shakespeare play it is based on mixes romance with fraternal politics and the supernatural.
Veteran British actress Helen Mirren co stars with rising star Felicity Jones, who plays her daughter in the film which will see its release in UK cinemas soon.
