HOLLYWOOD REPORTER – Paul Feig is directing the Universal movie, which is a holiday romance set in London.

Game of Thrones‘ Emilia Clarke and Crazy Rich Asians‘ Henry Golding are ready for a little holiday romance.
The pair will star in Universal’s Last Christmas, a holiday film set in London. Paul Feig, whose latest film A Simple Favor opened in theaters on Sept. 14, will helm the project, which reunites him with Golding, who stars in A Simple Favor.
The plot for the Universal movie, with a screenplay by Emma Thompson and Bryony Kimmings, has been kept mostly under wraps other than it being a holiday romance set in London.
Feig, who previously helmed Bridesmaids, The Heat and Ghostbusters and created the comedy series Freaks and Geeks, will produce for his Feigco Entertainment, alongside Jessie Henderson. David Livingstone, producer of the upcoming Judy starring Renee Zellweger, and Thompson will also produce. Executive vp of production Erik Baiers will oversee the project for Universal.
Clarke plays Daenerys Targaryen on HBO’s hit Game of Thrones, which won the Emmy for best drama on Monday, and will wrap up with its eighth season in 2019. She was most recently seen on the big screen in Solo: A Star Wars Story, and has previously shown off her skills in a romance film with 2016’s Me Before You. She is repped by CAA, Emptage Hallett in the UK and Hansen, Jacobson.
Golding’s first-ever feature film role was the lead Nick Young in Crazy Rich Asians, which has skyrocketed him to leading man status after the Warner Bros.’ hit romantic comedy was No. 1 at the box office for three weeks in a row to become the top-grossing comedy at the domestic box office in two years. He stars opposite Blake Lively and Anna Kendrick in Feig’s A Simple Favor (which earned 16 million in its domestic debut), and he’s also shot the indie Monsoon. He’s repped by Paradigm, Megan Silverman Management and Stone Genow.
