Judi Dench returns to the role of Queen Victoria in the upcoming Victoria and Abdul, which will be released later this year through Universal Pictures.
The extraordinary true story sees the unexpected friendship between Queen Victoria and Abdul Karim, a young clerk who travelled from India to participate in the Queen’s Golden Jubilee. As their friendship deepens, the Queen begins to see a changing world through new eyes and joyfully reclaims her humanity.
Of course, Dench won the Academy Award for her previous incarnation of the former monarch in Mrs Brown back in 1997. Twenty years on, she’s back in the role for Victoria and Abdul, which releases in UK cinemas from 15th September.
