A screenshot from the Guardian article which is a picture above some text. The picture is of Rupert Graves as David Martin. He is wearing a long haired wig and a leather jacket and is aiming a gun slightly down from the camera. The text below reads: For those wondering how Paul Greengrass was able to transition from ITV journalist to Hollywood power player, the answer is with films like Open Fire. This is his first work of filmed fiction; a 1994 made-for-TV movie about the real-life manhunt for escaped criminal David Martin, and the police blunder that led to a national scandal. As a finished piece of work it’s undoubtedly a little rough around the edges, and very much of its time. But as an artefact of Greengrass’s progress, it’s endlessly fascinating.

Open Fire, starring Rupert Graves as David Martin, is on Talking Pictures TV in the UK tonight at 11:10pm and is one of The Guardian's "7 best films to watch on TV this week".

(That said, the complete lack of publicity about Verona isn't exactly filling me with optismism!)

Jason Isaacs Says ‘Verona’s Romeo & Juliet’ Will Be “Fabulous” and “Unbelievable” Musical Verona’s Romeo & Juliet is set to tell the story that inspired William Shakespeare’s tragic love story. Here's what Jason Isaacs had to share.

STILL waiting for #WashingtonBlack news but we've pop musical "Verona's Romeo & Juliet" to look forward to, set to release on February 14th. Jason Isaacs (Lord Montague) says he doesn't sing in it - suspect Rupert Graves (Prince Escalus) may be the same but I'll be delighted to be proved wrong!

Two pictures offset diagonally against each other over a background of a seascape and flowers. The larger picture in the bottom left is of the front cover of Natalie Jenner's book Austen At Sea featuring two women in period dress at a railing looking out to sea and in the top right corner, a picture of the actor Rupert Graves. He has silver hair, is wearing a white shirt and smiling broadly.

A quote from the author's Instagram post: "I am so excited to announce that the audiobook for my upcoming novel Austen at Sea will be narrated by British actor Rupert Graves! Graves has appeared in many film, television, and theatrical productions including A Room with a View, Maurice, The Madness of King George, The Forsyte Saga as Jolyon Forsyte and Sherlock as Detective Inspector Lestrade (both from the BBC), and the 2020 Autumn de Wilde film adaptation of Emma as Mr. Weston."

The quote continues "Graves’s narration of Austen at Sea is a dream come true for me. As a Canadian suburban teenager in 1985, I remember laughing as hard as I’ve ever laughed in a movie theatre while Graves, as Freddy Honeychurch, ran naked around a pond with the equally bare George Emerson and Reverend Mr. Beebe in the Academy Award-winning movie A Room with a View. Graves’s role as gamekeeper Alec Scudder, with whom Maurice falls in love in the eponymous Merchant Ivory film, had an unforeseen but indelible impact on the writing of The Jane Austen Society – just weeks before I began writing my debut novel, I had attended a screening of Maurice at @tiff_net in Toronto followed by a talk by director James Ivory, and over time I increasingly see its influence on my own work and the character of Adam Berwick in particular. And of course there is the recent adaptation of Jane Austen’s masterpiece #Emma, where Graves’s rich, melodic voice brings the melancholy yet determined whimsy of Mr. Weston to life."

Rupert Graves has been announced as the audiobook narrator for the upcoming release of "Austen At Sea" by Natalie Jenner.
The audiobook releases on May 6, 2025, in tandem with the US hardcover and Canadian paperback, and is available for pre-order now.
