First image released from Mike Leight's J.M.W. Turner biopic Untitled 13. The film is currently in post-production in London. It stars Timothy Spall (Harry Potter, The King's Speech, The Damned United) as the famous British artist.
 
Previous Leigh collaborators feature both in front of and behind the camera – with actors including Marion Bailey, Dorothy Atkinson and Paul Jesson,  and the crew led by producer Georgina Lowe, cinematographer Dick Pope, costume designer Jacqueline Durran and make-up and hair designer Christine Blundell (an Oscar winner for the director’s Topsy-Turvy).  A newcomer to Leigh’s team is production designer Suzie Davies.
