Dan Stevens Joins Lily James In 20th Century Pic Inspired By Bumble’s Whitney Wolfe Herd
deadline.comEXCLUSIVE: After having a busy month at the box-office with Godzilla x Kong: A New Empire and Abigail both opening, Dan Stevens is continuing to stay busy as he is set to join Lily James in the upcoming film inspired by the story of Bumble founder Whitney Wolfe Herd, from 20th Century Studios and Ethea Entertainment.
