Natalie Dormer has been cast as the lead in the upcoming biopic 'Audrey's Children.'
On July 14 Deadline reported that Game of Thrones star Natalie Dormer has signed on to take the lead for Audrey's Children. The film, directed by Ami Canaan Mann, is a biopic of steadfast healthcare pioneer and co-founder of Ronald McDonald House Charities Dr. Audrey Evans. With real-life 97-year-old Evans' permission and good grace, the biography will chronicle the revolutionary oncologist's journey from the early '70s when she was first named Chief of Pediatric Oncology.
Born in 1925 to a middle-class English family, Evans broke molds from the very beginning. With the full support of her family, she set out to become a doctor at a time when it was incredibly rare for women to aspire for such a career. Despite struggling in school with the memory aspect of learning, Evans pushed through with determination, ultimately mastering the knowledge in her own way through hands-on learning.
The screenplay for Audrey's Children is written by Modern Hero's Emmy-nominated Julia Fisher Farbman, who will also produce the film, after years of research and personal conversations with Evans. Director Mann is best known for her work on the 2011 crime drama Texas Killing Fields starring Sam Worthington, Jessica Chastain, and Jeffrey Dean Morgan.
