Felicity Jones: Selected as female lead for "Pru"
British actress Felicity Jones has been selected to play the female lead in Ricky Gervais'"The Men at the Pru".
Jones has signed the movie to play the role of Julie, who is led to believe by the men around her that a woman should focus on raising a family but who wants to pursue a career in photography.
The movie, "The Men at the Pru", follows three young men working at an insurance company in the 1970s.
The comedy-drama, which is designed to cultivate local production, will be shot this summer in England.
Jones has appeared in a number of high-profile British films, like Julius Jarrold's "Brideshead Revisited", Stephen Frears' upcoming period romance "Cheri" and Julie Taymor's femme-centric retelling of "The Tempest".
