Alexander Skarsgård and Harry Melling To Star in Kinky Queer Romance ‘Pillion’

Alexander Skarsgard and Harry Melling

Alexander Skarsgård and Harry Melling have just been announced to star in the kinky queer romance movie ‘Pillion’.

‘Pillion’ is a new film from ‘Poor Things’ producer, Element Pictures, and is described as a “fun and filthy romance with heart.”

Harry Lighton will serve as the director and will be writing the script which is based on Adam Mars-Jones’ 2019 Fitzcarraldo Editions Novel Prize winner “Box Hill.”

An official logline of the film reads, “Colin, a timid man, meets Ray, a confident biker gang leader, who initiates him into a submissive relationship, challenging Colin’s mundane existence and prompting personal growth through their unconventional dynamic.”

Melling will play Colin, a wallflower who leads a dreary life, letting time pass him by until he meets Skarsgård’s character Ray, a deviously handsome leader of a motorbike club, who takes him on as his submissive. Ray introduces Colin to a community of kinky, queer bikers, but as Colin delves deeper into Ray’s BDSM world, he starts to consider whether the life of a submissive is truly meant for him.

Skarsgård is known for his smash hit series ‘True Blood’ and several popular films such as ‘The Legend of Tarzan’ and ‘Infinity Pool’.

Melling’s acting credits include the mega-popular movie franchise ‘Harry Potter’, ‘The Devil All the Time’, and the 2020 Netflix hit drama ‘The Queen’s Gambit’.

The film is set to begin principal photography in the UK this summer. Skarsgård is also serving as the executive producer alongside BBC Film’s Eva Yates, Picturehouse’s Claire Binns, and September Films’ Pim Hermeling.
