The Iron Lady Trailer

Here this is below thanks to IMDB...now I know that of late this website has had some bad press but give this another chance.

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1007029/#lb-vi1047305753

This film stars an array of stars such as the most obvious one being Meryl Streep as the Iron Lady herself, Jim Broadbent,- who you'll have seen in Bridget Jones Diary II as Bridget's downtrodden father-, who will play Margaret's husband in the later years, but playing Dennis when he is younger is Harry Lloyd ,-who if the name doesn't immediatly jump out at you then he was in a couple of episodes of BBC one's Robin Hood series and played Will Scarlet in this...no still not ringing any bells me neither but he was also in Holby City and played Damon Hughes-.

Ian Glen will play Alfred Roberts, if your not a fan of Resident Evil like myself than you wn't know that he was the doctor who worked for the umbrella corporation that bought Mila Jocovich's character Alice back to life after the bomb hit that wiped out Racoon City in the second Resident Evil, he's also been in Tomb Raider as Alex Price who wanted the triangle of everlasting light to take over the world.

Anthony Head who you will no doubtedly remember from either Buffy the Vampire Slayer as Giles or from Little Britain as the Prime Minister who was the object of desire for Sebastien (this was played by David Walliams), he will play Geoffrey Howe.

Richard E. Grant who was in another one of my favourite films...well I say favourite as it always manages to make me cry, this being Jack and Sarah. In this film though however, he will play Michael Hessletine.

Olivia Coleman from Rev and most notably from Hot Fuzz Doris Thatcher who liked her sexual innuendos, she will play Carol.

There will be however some archive footage of Ronald Reagan in this film as he can not be in this film to play himself sadly...but that would be good wouldn't it all be it very creepy because he's suppose to be dead if he could rise from the grave just this once to play himself in the movie.

Protheroe from V for Vendetta, Roger Allam will be in this film playing Gordon Reece along with Teresa Mulhoney who was in X:Men First Class who played a mother in the Auschwitz scenes at the begining of the film...but all her other acting credits are very small parts in films so if you are still not knowing who she is don't worry, she will play a staff member at Downing Street.

Nicholas Farrel will be in this, he was if I can remember rightly he was in the Poirot which I have to say is one of my favourites, the ABC murders...he played in this the boyfriend of Betty (the sceond murder victim who gets strangled on a beach), in this film she will play a Conservative
 Advisor.

Alexander Roach is also in this as the young Margaret Thatcher, Nick Dunning will play James Prior, Susan Brown will play June and Julia Wadham will play Francis Pym.

This film gives an incite into the former PM Margaret Thatcher, what went on during her leadership of England, as well as it giving an incite into how she gained the respect of her peers by breaking through barriers of gender and what she was like as a person, and it ultimatly shows the price she paid for having the power of ruling England.

This film is directed by Phyllida Lloyd and Abi Morgan wrote the screen play for this.

The film is out here in the UK on 6th January 2012.
