Hathaway and Ejiofor are a couple quarantined in their flat in London due to a mandatory lockdown. Frustrations rise as they both attempt to navigate their work and social lives from behind a computer screen. With tensions high, they begin to drift apart and call it quits. However, fate, being the way it is, has other plans for the pair.
Linda, played by Hathaway, and Paxton, played by Ejiofor, are put in a position to steal a three million dollar diamond. The two work together to steal the diamond from the high-class department store Harrod’s.
In the description of the official trailer, HBO provides, “A breakup, a pandemic, and a heist. Anne Hathaway and Chiwetel Ejiofor become closer in the most surprising way.”
‘Locked Down,’ which premiers next week, also stars Mindy Kaling, who has worked with Hathaway before. British screenwriter Steven Knight wrote the film and producers Micheal Lesslie, P.J. van Sandwijik, and Allison Winter worked together to produce the film.
This upcoming movie shows the many emotions and struggles of living life during a pandemic.
‘Locked Down’ is surely going to be the next best quarantine entertainment as viewers will be able to easily relate to the struggles of being stuck with a loved one during a pandemic. Streaming begins on January 14th on HBO Max.
