Adele to Make Acting Debut in Tom Ford’s Anne Rice Film ‘Cry to Heaven’

According to The Hollywood Reporter, Harrison Ford will write, produce, and direct the upcoming film adaptation of Anne Rice’s novel. The story is set in 18th-century Italy and follows a Venetian nobleman and a castrato opera singer as they navigate the competitive world of opera. While details about Adele’s role are currently being kept secret, the film’s focus on music suggests she’ll be a natural fit. Cry to Heaven is now in pre-production, filming in London and Rome, and is scheduled to begin shooting in mid-January, with a planned release in the fall of 2026.
