First look at modern Dickens adaptation Twist featuring Michael Caine, Lena Headey and Rita Ora

November 9, 2019 by Amie Cranswick

Sky Cinema has released the first image from Twist, the modern-day reimagining of Charles Dickens’ classic novel Oliver Twist featuring Michael Caine, Lena Headey, Rita Ora, Franz Drameh, Sophie Simnett, and Raff Law; take a look here…

Twist is a modern interpretation of Charles Dickens’ Oliver Twist in which Oliver is reinvented as a streetwise artist living on the streets of modern-day London. A chance encounter with a gang of grifters led by the charismatic Dodge (Rita Ora) sees Twist (Jude Law) caught up in a high stakes heist to steal a priceless painting for master thief, Fagin (Michael Caine), and his psychopathic business partner, Sikes (Lena Headey).

Look out for Twist in 2020.
