She stars alongside Sam Claflin in the Jojo Moyes adaptation.
Time for a love story with a bit of a difference. It's always tragic when fate intervenes in a relationship to complicate things in unimaginable ways, but for Louisa Clark and William Traynor in 'Me Before You', their love has its complications from the very beginning.
Emilia Clarke and Sam Claflin star in Me Before You
A new trailer featuring Ed Sheeran's 'Photograph' for this tear-jerker will likely break your heart into a million pieces. 'Me Before You' follows a vivacious though slightly odd woman in her 20s as she embarks on a new career as the personal carer to a young man confined to a wheelchair after an accident left him almost completely paralysed. It's not something she's ever experienced before, and what follows is a relationship she never dreamed of.
While William is irritable, sarcastic and sometimes a little mean, he can't help but feel a better upon the arrival of his new nurse in all her weird and wonderful glory. A quirky dress sense, a naive look on life and an enormous heart, Louisa makes the perfect companion for the last few months of his life. While he's wealthy, educated and surrounded by a loving family, he can't see a future trapped in his useless body unable to do the things he used to love and so plans to terminate his suffering. But Louisa's arrival only serves to complicate matters and he is faced with an important decision; to stick around now that he has something and someone to live for, or to leave the world so as not to deny Louisa the chance of a normal relationship.
