Once a healthy vibrant young man, the film will delve deep into the heart of Hawking’s increasing disability and the struggles that he and his wife face in order to continue to make advances in his ground-breaking study of time and space. Rumours of a volatile relationship between the two also plagued the couple before their divorce, something which the film may also touch on.
Co-starring Emily Watson and David Thewlis, the motion picture has been directed by James Marsh who joined the project in 2012 after writer, Anthony McCarten, had already been working on its development since 2004.
