Rupert Everett and Gina McKee were recently spotted filming the final dramatic scenes of the future blockbuster My Policeman.
The snapshots taken in East Sussex indicated a potentially tense development and showed the movie stars lying next to a wheelchair on the beach in which Rupert was previously pictured sitting.
The upcoming romantic LGBT drama is about husband and wife Marion and Tom, who fall in love on the Brighton coast in the 1950s, before museum curator Patrick develops feelings for police officer Tom.

The story begins in the 1950s, but the timeline of the plot goes back to the 1990s, when actors are swapped to represent the characters’ correct ages.
Gina, 57, takes on the role of Marion, who is played in the earlier scenes by Emma Corrin, 25. Rupert, 62, meanwhile, takes on the role of Patrick, succeeding David Dawson, 38.
Law and Order actor Linus Roache, who plays the older version of the cop character Tom, was not seen on the set. When he was young, he is portrayed by Dunkirk actor Harry Styles, 27.

The film produced by Amazon Studios is unknown as to when the film will hit the big screen.
London and Brighton were the filming locations, with the Sussex coast providing picturesque views of the latest on-set snapshots.
