The drama's stars include musician Harry Styles, The Crown's Emma Corrin and more.
The highly anticipated drama My Policeman will reach Prime Video's streaming library worldwide on November 4th. This is a quick turnaround from the film's cinema debut on the October 21st, and its premiere at the 2022 London Film Festival on the October 15th.
My Policeman is based on a 2012 book by Bethan Roberts with the same title. Director Michael Grandage has brought the story to the visual world with musician Harry Styles, The Crown star Emma Corrin and more.
The film takes place in two distinct time periods, following the relationships between Tom (Harry Styles), Marion (Emma Corrin), and Patrick (David Dawson) in 1950s Britain. It also flashes forward to the 1990s, where their grown-selves (played by Linus Roache, Gina McKee, and Rupert Everett) grapple with their damaged past.

The project is described as "a beautifully crafted romance which deals with history, liberty and forgiveness". The anticipated film also explores the themes of forbidden love and changing social norms in a time period where homosexuality was illegal.
Roberts' novel is inspired by a true story of English author E.M. Forester, who had a relationship with a man while also being friends with his wife.
