Fresh from the Vatican shenanigans of Conclave, director Edward Berger travels to China for another literary adaptation: this time of Lawrence Osborne’s 2014 book. The travel journalist-turned-novelist’s crime tale The Forgiven was adapted in 2021, with Ralph Fiennes and Jessica Chastain as a married couple all at sea in Morocco, and The Ballad of a Small Player has invited further Graham Greene comparisons (think gone-to-seed Brits abroad). Colin Farrell plays a high-stakes gambler who passes himself off as an English lord while lying low in the casinos of Macau. Throw in Tilda Swinton and we’re sold. Buy the book here.
