THE IRON LADY RULES

THE IRON LADY took the UK by storm this weekend when the film was the No 1 opener at the box office, taking over £2.1m. This figure is nearly three times the box office achieved by THE QUEEN when it opened in 2006.

Such popular acclaim for the film is not unique to the UK. Released two weeks ago in Australia, THE IRON LADY is an antipodean hit - destined to join the exclusive club of films whose gross exceeds $10m. Similarly in Spain, the only other country where THE IRON LADY is on general release, the film has opened at number 2 at the box office, just behind SHERLOCK HOLMES 2. It is a remarkable achievement.

Unsurprisingly the buzz is now building around the release of the film in the US where it opens this Friday. The film had a technical release on 4 prints on December 30th to qualify for the Oscars. Even on such a limited release, the film managed to gross a stellar $220,000 on its opening weekend.

The world appears keen to engage with THE IRON LADY!

Principal Photography begins on THE IRON LADY starring MERYL STREEP

"The prospect of exploring the swathe cut through history by this remarkable woman is a daunting and exciting challenge. I am trying to approach the role with as much zeal, fervour and attention to detail as the real Lady Thatcher possesses - I can only hope my stamina will begin to approach her own!"

MERYL STREEP

Pathé announces that principal photography has begun on THE IRON LADY. Written by award-winning writer Abi Morgan (Sex Traffic, Brick Lane, White Girl), directed by Phyllida Lloyd CBE (Mamma Mia) and produced by Damian Jones (The History Boys, Adulthood). The film will be executive produced by Francois Ivernel and Cameron McCracken for Pathé, by Tessa Ross for Film4 and by Adam Kulick for Goldcrest.

THE IRON LADY tells the compelling story of Margaret Thatcher, a woman who smashed through the barriers of gender and class to be heard in a male-dominated world. The story concerns power and the price that is paid for power, and is a surprising and intimate portrait of an extraordinary and complex woman.

The film stars Academy Award-winners Meryl Streep as Lady Thatcher and Jim Broadbent as Denis Thatcher. Their young selves are played by Alexandra Roach and Harry Lloyd. The rest of the cast of family and friends, politicians and advisers, is made up of the very best of British acting talent, including: Olivia Colman, Nicholas Farrell, Susan Brown, Roger Allam, Anthony Head, Julian Wadham, Pip Torrens, Nick Dunning, Richard E Grant, David Westhead, Angus Wright and John Sessions.

The film is a Pathé, Film4, UK Film Council presentation with the partcipation of Canal+ and Cine Cinema in association with Goldcrest Film Production LLP of a DJ Films Production.

Pathé will distribute the film in France; and Fox will distribute the film in the UK on behalf of Pathé.

Pathé International will handle International sales.

Shooting began on location in the UK on 31st January 2011
