EXCLUSIVE: Mia McKenna-Bruce, recipient of last year’s BAFTA Rising Star laureate and star of Molly Manning Walker’s breakthrough hit How to Have Sex, has joined Claire Denis’ new film The Cry of the Guards.

She replaces the previously announced Riley Keough. The fast-rising British actress travels to the Republic of Senegal in West Africa next week for principal photography on the Denis movie with longtime attached actors Matt Dillon (Asteroid City, You, Me and Dupree, Drugstore Cowboy) and Isaach De Bankolé, who starred in Denis’ 1990 masterwork No Fear, No Die and her films Chocolat and White Material, and more recently in The Brutalist and Black Panther.

Denis returns to the continent that defined her childhood to make The Cry of the Guards, which during development was also known as The Fence — and there’s chatter about it reverting back to that title — to film the intense drama focusing on four main characters: three men and a woman.

A bon-bon for those who guessed that McKenna-Bruce takes the role of the woman! She will play the part of Leoné, whose partner is among a group at the center of the plot involving a man who turns up in a sub-Saharan country insisting on the release of his brother’s body, who was supposedly killed in an industrial accident.
