News – New Film About the Search for King Richard III

British actor, comedian, writer and producer Steve Coogan just confirmed to the BBC (04.09.2020), that a film about the ‘Search for King Richard III’ will start filming in the year 2021.

Mr. Coogan also revealed, that he will be playing Philippa Langley‘s husband in the planned film.

Ms. Philippa Langley’s role for the discovery of King Richard III in the former church ground in Leicester together with the research done by Dr. John Ashdown Hill (†) was essential for the discovery, which for so long had been deemed impossible. Their persistence and research had made this ground-breaking discovery possible.

And so I am very happy that a film is now planned to show their long and exhausting efforts and hard way to this phenomenal success.

Congratulations, Philippa Langley !
