Olivia Colman prank calls Paul Rudd<\/h3>\n

The Crown star Olivia Colman is taking on the starring role of Edith Swan, a deeply conservative woman who is quick to point the finger in her community’s mystery.<\/p>\n

Netflix actress Olivia is set to star alongside Jessie Buckley, who will play Rose Gooding, the fiery younger woman wrongly accused of drafting a spate of hateful letters to various members of the community.<\/p>\n

The trailer for the film dropped today and was saturated with swear words – something viewers wouldn’t have seen from Olivia in her recent regal role.<\/p>\n

The synopsis for the film reads: “A 1920s English seaside town bears witness to a farcical and occasionally sinister scandal in this riotous mystery comedy.<\/p>\n

“Based on a stranger-than-fiction true story, Wicked Little Letters follows two neighbours: deeply conservative local Edith Swan and rowdy Irish migrant Rose Gooding.<\/p>\n

“When Edith and fellow residents begin to receive wicked letters full of unintentionally hilarious profanities, foul-mouthed Rose is charged with the crime.<\/p>\n

“The anonymous letters prompt a national uproar, and a trial ensues. However, as the town\u2019s women, led by Police Officer Gladys Moss [Anjana Vasan], begin to investigate the crime themselves, they suspect that something is amiss, and Rose may not be the culprit after all.”<\/p>\n

Timothy Spall, Hugh Skinner and Joanna Scanlan have also been cast in unconfirmed roles.<\/p>\n

After the trailer dropped, many fans of Olivia’s were quick to comment on her upcoming performance.<\/p>\n

The two-and-a-half-minute teaser gives fans a hint at the show’s outrageous language and playful humour.<\/p>\n
