‘Silo’ Star Rebecca Ferguson and Greta Lee Spotted Filming a Lesbian Rom-Com in London
Movie set sightings always send fans into a frenzy, especially when two acclaimed actresses show up together somewhere unexpected. London has become something of a hotspot for productions this summer, with cameras popping up all over the city for a variety of projects.
This particular sighting, though, caught fans off guard in the best way. Rebecca Ferguson has built a career on blockbuster franchises and prestige dramas alike, while Greta Lee has spent the past few years becoming one of the industry’s most sought-after performers, making any project pairing the two an instant point of interest.
According to reports, Ferguson and Lee were spotted filming together at Horse Guards Parade in London, working on what’s being described as an untitled rom-com. The footage showed the pair on set near the historic parade grounds, though no studio or production company has confirmed details about the project publicly.
While the film’s plot and creative team remain under wraps, Lee herself may have already dropped a hint about what fans can expect. In a recent conversation with Willem Dafoe for Interview Magazine, tied to their film ‘Late Fame,’ Lee described her latest project when asked what she was currently working on. “It’s a romance, but it’s between two women, and I haven’t done that before,” she told Dafoe, adding with a laugh, “Full on, baby. I’m doing my stretches.”
That exchange, paired with the London set photos, strongly suggests this romantic comedy centers on a relationship between Ferguson and Lee’s characters, though neither the studio nor the actresses have formally announced the project or its title. Fans online have already started speculating about who might be behind the camera, given how tightly under wraps the details have remained.
Lee’s comment to Dafoe fits into a broader conversation the two actors were having about seeking out new creative challenges. When Dafoe asked what draws her to unfamiliar territory, Lee explained that she’s always admired his willingness to take on a wide range of roles, and the two swapped thoughts on the appeal of stepping into unfamiliar creative spaces.
For Ferguson, this rom-com marks a notable shift from the high-stakes action and prestige drama work she’s best known for. She’s spent recent years balancing tentpole franchise work with the ‘Mission: Impossible’ series and Denis Villeneuve’s ‘Dune’ films, alongside television projects like ‘Silo,’ making a romantic comedy something of a change of pace.
Lee, meanwhile, is coming off her acclaimed turn in ‘Late Fame’ opposite Dafoe, directed by Kent Jones and written by Samy Burch, which hit theaters in New York on August 7 before expanding further. That film, an adaptation of an Arthur Schnitzler novella reimagined for contemporary New York, has drawn strong reviews for both Dafoe and Lee’s performances.
With production apparently already underway based on the London sightings, more details about the rom-com’s cast, director, and release timeline will likely surface in the coming weeks. Given the pedigree of both leads, this project is shaping up to be one of the more talked-about romantic comedies on the horizon, even before an official announcement.
For now, fans will have to rely on set photos and cryptic interview hints to piece together what Ferguson and Lee are working on together.
