Joe Wright‘s musical version of Cyrano de Bergerac aka Cyrano will be in UK and Irish cinemas from next week. Today Universal Pictures gives a glimpse into the film into creating the timeless tale into song.

Considered to be one of the greatest love stories ever told. Peter Dinklage  is Cyrano de Bergerac who one of the greatest wordsmiths of his era. He finds himself caught in a love triangle with Christian (Kelvin Harrison Jr) vowing for the love of Roxanne ( Hayley Bennett). Despite his talents for words he is unable to tell her of his love for her and instead helps Christian to win her heart thanks to letters.

The Featurette is entitled ‘A Razor’s Wit‘ which gives us an opportunity to hear from the cast and crew in their process to convert the timeless love story into a musical.

Award-winning director Joe Wright envelops moviegoers in a symphony of emotions with music, romance, and beauty in Cyrano, re-imagining the timeless tale of a heartbreaking love triangle. A man ahead of his time, Cyrano de Bergerac (played by Peter Dinklage) dazzles whether with ferocious wordplay at a verbal joust or with brilliant swordplay in a duel. But, convinced that his appearance renders him unworthy of the love of a devoted friend, the luminous Roxanne (Haley Bennett), Cyrano has yet to declare his feelings for her — and Roxanne has fallen in love, at first sight, with Christian (Kelvin Harrison, Jr.).

The film also stars  Ben Mendelsohn and Bashir Salahuddin. Cyrano will be released in the UK and Irish cinemas from Friday 14th January 2022.
