EXCLUSIVE: Jack Huston (House of Gucci) and Abbie Cornish (Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri) have been cast in upcoming drama, I’m Beginning To See The Light.
The film will mark Russian filmmaker Konstantin Khudyakov’s (The Road To Calvary) first English-language feature. The film will follow Ezra (Huston), a grief-stricken jazz trumpeter who seeks purpose and salvation after the sudden, tragic death of his wife and daughter.
When he is mistaken for the new lighthouse keeper, Ezra meets Hannah (Cornish), a local school teacher who, along with ethereal music, reignites his passion for life and imbues it with meaning.
Veteran Khudyakov has worked in the business since the early 1960’s, starting out as an actor before turning to directing. He has directed more than 20 films and a number of TV series, including 2017 period miniseries The Road To Calvary, which scored multiple awards in Russia, and was picked up by Netflix.
