Media 8 will begin talking to buyers at EFM about the recast drama next month.

Production is set to begin in the UK and Ireland this summer. Bloom, Imogen Poots and Kerry Condon star in the tale about the young British war poet Robert Graves, his wife Nancy and the passionate young American writer Laura Riding. 

CAA represents both Bloom and Poots while Condon is represented by ICM.

Writer-director William Nunez said: “At its core, The Laureate will be a study of intense relationships: what created them, what can undo them, what they encompass, what they can alter, and what they can’t.” Phillip Moran and Paul Myler are producing with Nunez.

Media 8 introduced the project at Cannes last year with Dominic Cooper and Hayley Atwell attached before they pulled out due to scheduling conflicts.
