![]() ![]() This posed an exciting challenge for us as producers and filmmakers: how to convey the magic of sprawling green fields, rolling hills, and farms steeped in history, while also keeping the minute nuances of Rosemary (Emily Blunt) and Anthony’s (Jamie Dornan) emotional arcs center stage? Luckily, we had help here. Unless you’ve seen it for yourself, it’s a place that’s charm, vibrancy, and verdancy can’t quite be put into words. Still of Emily Blunt and Jamie Dornan in "Wild Mountain Thyme"Īpart from the incredible cast performances and the entirely unique tone of this film, I was most excited for audiences to experience a slice of what I was lucky enough to call my office for a few months in 2019: Ireland! Here was the opportunity – finally! – after months in lockdown, for audiences to delight in Emily Blunt, Jamie Dornan, Jon Hamm, and Christopher Walken’s offbeat characters, and for everyone to flee the harsh reality of 2020 for the warm embrace of a modern fairy tale – if only for a few hours. When WMT was released on PVOD and in theaters last December, everyone involved with the project was, naturally, overjoyed. For so many people involved in the shoot, it would be the last time they’d be on a set before COVID-19 struck. It’s hard to believe that this fall, it’ll already be two years since we were in Ireland, shooting John Patrick Shanley’s romantic comedy WILD MOUNTAIN THYME. ![]()
