Production
editIn February 2024, it was announced that an action-thriller film titled The Fisherwoman was in development with Brian Kirk directing and Nicholas Jacobson-Larson and Dalton Leeb writing the screenplay. Laurel Marsden, Emma Thompson and Judy Greer were cast in the lead roles, alongside Gaia Wise and Marc Menchaca. Principal photography began on February 26, in Koli, Finland and North Rhine-Westphalia, Germany.[1][2] In Finland, Thompson praised the skills of the local working crew,[3] even writing a laudatory letter dedicated to the Finns, published by Helsingin Sanomat.[4][5] Because of this, the Finnish president Alexander Stubb personally called Thompson and thanked the actress "for her beautiful words, trust in Finns and welcomed her back to Finland".[4][6]
