Adele Takes Center Stage In Tom Ford'S Glamorous 'Cry To Heaven' Adaptation

The Diva Hits the Big Screen

Adele is trading in her microphone for a script, stepping into the world of acting with a splashy debut in Tom Ford's upcoming adaptation of Anne Rice's 'Cry to Heaven.' The buzz around this project is electric as Adele, known for her soulful voice and heart-wrenching ballads, now adds acting to her artistic repertoire.

Star-Studded Ensemble

In true Hollywood fashion, Adele isn't going it alone. She's joined by a veritable who's who of talent, including Nicholas Hoult, Aaron Taylor-Johnson, George MacKay, Colin Firth, Paul Bettany, Owen Cooper, and Hunter Schafer. While their specific roles are still under wraps, this ensemble promises a captivating cinematic experience.

“I will only ever make a movie if I control the underlying rights,” Tom Ford told The Associated Press in 2016, underscoring his commitment to creative control.

A Tale of Opera and Intrigue

Set in the opulent world of 18th century Italian opera, 'Cry to Heaven' follows the lives of two characters from starkly different backgrounds. With its lush settings and dramatic narrative, the film is poised to bring Rice's novel to life in a way that only Tom Ford can – stylishly and with a touch of glamour.

The Visionary Behind the Lens

Tom Ford is no stranger to the director's chair. Known for his meticulous eye and attention to detail, Ford's previous films, 'A Single Man' and 'Nocturnal Animals,' have garnered critical acclaim. His latest project, 'Cry to Heaven,' is currently in pre-production and aims for a late fall 2026 release.

With the combination of Adele's debut and Ford's vision, this film is shaping up to be a must-see event, blending the worlds of fashion, music, and cinema into a unique tapestry.
