Penélope Cruz and Javier Bardem have joined forces onscreen once more for Everybody Knows, the latest film from director Asghar Farhadi.
It marks the fifth collaboration between the two actors, who are married in real life, following Jamón, jamón (1992), Vicky Cristina Barcelona (2008), The Counselor (2013) and Loving Pablo (2017).
Everybody Knows follows Laura (Cruz), a Spanish woman living in Buenos Aires, who returns with her teenage daughter and young son to her hometown outside Madrid for a family wedding.
However, her trip is suddenly interrupted by a ghastly turn of events that brings old secrets out into the open, after her daughter is kidnapped and Laura tries to scrape together the ransom money.
Farhadi is best known for 2012’s A Separation and 2016’s The Salesman, which were both nominated for the Academy Award for Best Foreign Language Film.
Everybody Knows is released in UK cinemas on 8 March.
