Kate Winslet and Saoirse Ronan are falling in love in the first trailer for Ammonite, a controversial romantic drama that’s being tipped for Oscars. The film tells the story of paleontologist and fossil hunter Mary Anning, played by Winslet, whose discoveries were often overlooked during her life in the early 19th century. Another relative, Lorraine Anning, disagreed saying that “as long as it’s well presented and tastefully done” then it doesn’t matter. Ronan has amassed four Oscar nominations, including most recently for Little Women, while Winslet has won one and received another six nods. Ammonite will be released on 13 November in the US and in 2021 in the UK.
