Susan Chardy Set To Star In Historical Drama Based On The Life Of Britain’s Pre-Raphaelite Black Supermodel Fanny Eaton

BUFF Studios and Tunji Entertainment are developing a historical drama based on the life of Fanny Eaton, a Jamaican woman who became one of the most popular models in Victorian England and featured in many Pre-Raphaelite masterpieces, with Susan Chardy (On Becoming A Guinea Fowl) set to star.

Titled Eaton, the film will be directed by BAFTA-nominated filmmaker Alex Kayode-Kay (The Ballad of Olive Morris) with Kate Herron (Loki, Sex Education) attached as executive producer.

The project marks the feature directorial debut of Kayode-Kay, who will also co-write and produce the project under his production banner Tunji Entertainment. Casting on the ensemble is underway, and producers will be presenting the project at the EFM. 

“The story of Fanny Eaton is one I’ve wanted to tell onscreen for a long time, and I couldn’t think of a better team of collaborators to do it with,” Kayode-Kay said in a statement. “The role of Fanny is not easy to cast, so when someone of Susan’s gravitas, grace, and star quality steps in, it’s a beautiful thing.”

Sparry is so self absorbed that he tried to ruin a lovely moment celebrating the memory of their mother. Here they are looking at photographs (2016/2017), and Harry can't resist whinging about how EVERYTHING in his life is all William's fault.

Sparry: "Me turning up thinking I've got my older brother at this school, he'll be looking after me when in fact he just ignored me. waaaagh!!!"

Harry continues to beat this same drum in Spare Us which should be entitled "Spare William."

The reader cannot take "Harold's" words as fact because each page in this novel is littered with barefaced lies woven around 1 or 2 facts.

Here on page 30, Sparry hates William because he was away at Eton and "wouldn't be at home to watch over me." Waaagh.

On page 42 Harry hates William for setting boundaries at Eton. Nevermind that it's completely normal for an older sibling, in this case William, to set boundaries with their younger sibling(s) in a boarding school setting.

"I (Sparry) told him (Wills) I'll forget I ever knew you." Waaagh!!

The moment the sun emerged from behind the hills and through the fog on Crystal Lake this morning. These trees had the most color of any Rob seen in 150+ miles of driving today. The saturation was added by the sun, not him. Incredibly beautiful.
