Lucy Boynton to play Marianne Faithfull in a biopic

Lucy Boynton is to play British singer-songwriter Marianne Faithfull in the forthcoming biopic 'Faithfull'. Boynton’s last film role was the Queen biopic 'Bohemian Rhapsody', in which she played Freddie Mercury’s partner Mary Austin. 'Faithfull' will be directed by Ian Bonhôte (author of documentary 'McQueen') and follow the singer’s tumultuous life in the public eye, from teen pop stardom to being a homeless drug addict and her triumphant return.
