For Echegui: Last News

is a refreshing bilingual rom-com that explores romance, heartbreak, culture and a little bit of mischievousness — which is exactly what attracted Sam Claflin and Verónica Echegui to the film.Claflin stars as uptight English writer Henry Copper who, much to his surprise, discovers that his dull and failed novel has become a huge hit in Mexico. Without knowing a lick of Spanish, he travels to the Latin American country to promote the book, only to find out that his Spanish translator, Maria, portrayed by Echegui, has rewritten his work as an erotic novel.«It was just a really uplifting story, very beautiful characters, and even the way that it was described in the script, it just gave so much life to Mexico and the sort of characters within it and the world that these characters lived in,» Claflin tells ET about what attracted him to the project.
