Tilda was seen in a vintage taxi while filming the scenes for the upcoming film.
Here’s a plot summary: “A scholar, content with life, encounters a Djinn who offers her three wishes in exchange for his freedom. Their conversation, in a hotel room in Istanbul, leads to consequences neither would have expected.” The movie also stars Idris Elba.
According to a report from Deadline last Christmas, the film is set to conclude filming in early spring for a planned September 2021 arrival in theaters.
The Mad Max director previously said “It’s a movie that is very strongly visual, but it’s almost the opposite of Fury Road. It’s almost all interior and there’s a lot of conversation in it. There are action scenes, but they are by the by and I guess you could say it’s the anti-Mad Max.”
Tilda recently got candid about her sexuality in an interview.
Tilda Swinton is opening up about her sexual identity in the new issue of British Vogue.
The 60-year-old Oscar winning actress chatted with the magazine about her upcoming projects and iconic career, before sharing that she has always felt queer in her sexuality.
“I always felt I was queer,” she said, adding that she found comfort in her career. “I was just looking for my queer circus, and I found it.”
Tilda added, “I’m very clear that queer is actually, for me anyway, to do with sensibility. And having found it, it’s my world.”
“Now I have a family with Wes Anderson, I have a family with Bong Joon-ho, I have a family with Jim Jarmusch, I have a family with Luca Guadagnino, with Lynne Ramsay, with Joanna Hogg.”
Tilda is currently involved with artist Sandro Kopp, and shares twins Honor and Xavier with ex-husband, John Byrne.

Tilda Swinton accepts the Golden Lion Award on stage at the 2020 Venice Film Festival‘s opening ceremony on Wednesday (September 2) in Venice, Italy.
The 59-year-old Oscar-winning actress was honored for her career achievements and she gave a nod to her fellow Marvel Cinematic Universe co-star Chadwick Boseman at the end of her speech.
Tilda concluded the speech by saying, “Viva Venezia. Cinema cinema cinema. Wakanda Forever. Nothing but love.”
If you didn’t know, Tilda played The Ancient One in both Doctor Strange and Avengers: Endgame. Chadwick, who played T’Challa/Black Panther, tragically died last week after a four-year battle with colon cancer.
During her speech, Tilda also talked about the power of moviegoing.
“Cinema is my happy place, my true motherland. Its fellowship is my heart’s family tree. The names on the list of those awarded this honor, meanwhile, they are the names of my masters. They’re the elders of my tribe. The poets of the language I love above others. I sing their songs in the bath. I’m the punk kid film nut hitching a ride to the station to get to the foothills of the heights of their achievements,” she said.
Earlier in the day, Tilda paid tribute to Chadwick with another touching moment at the festival.

Many of his co-stars from the film have also since spoken out to express their condolences and grief upon his passing.
Despite postponements and cancellations of most major events in 2020 due to the pandemic, the 2020 Venice Film Festival is still scheduled to take place from September 2 to September 12.
