English actress Gabriella Wright, known for playing Queen Claude of France in the series The Tudors, will soon be seen in the fantasy film, Eboni.
The actress is excited about the international feature film, which is being backed by an Indian production house.
“After my stint with historical fiction, I was keen on exploring the fantasy genre and when Imad (Imad Habib) narrated the script to me, it seemed like just the story I was looking for,” Gabriella said.
“It will be very interesting to collaborate with a production like Falak films (Falak Films Production) and work with a team which comes with such diverse experience. We are hoping to reach a new audience across the globe with ‘Eboni’,” added the actress, who will soon be seen in The Hitman’s Wife’s Bodyguard.
