Want to Hear More of Paul Mescal and Josh O'Connor Singing? Us, Too
Every item on this page was chosen by an ELLE editor. We may earn commission on some of the items you choose to buy. Paul Mescal is sitting in bed looking sad and gorgeous again. That seems to be a recurring theme throughout a number of the movie star's most famous projects (think: Aftersun, Normal People, and All of Us Strangers), but his upcoming film, The History of Sound, deserves particular attention for connecting him with yet another infamously scruffy romantic lead: Josh O'Connor, beloved for his roles in Challengers, La Chimera, and The Crown. In The History of Sound, adapted from author Ben Shattuck's short story of the same name, Mescal and O'Connor play Lionel and David, both folk music aficionados, who meet in 1917 at the Boston Conservatory. After World War I, they reunite in 1920 to travel through Maine, collecting and preserving traditional folk songs—and embarking on a love affair along the way. The film first premiered at the Cannes Film Festival earlier this spring, and ELLE's critic proclaimed the period piece 'quietly epic' and 'a masterclass in tender restraint.' Here's what we know about the project so far. Alongside Mescal and O'Connor, the film stars Molly Price, Alison Bartlett, and Chris Cooper, per Deadline—though it seems primarily intended as a star vehicle for its charismatic male leads. Oliver Hermanus (Living) directed The History of Sound, with cinematography by Alexander Dynan and the screenplay by Shattuck himself. After its Cannes debut, Mubi bought North American distribution rights, and Focus Features snagged international. In the U.S., The History of Sound will land in theaters on September 12, 2025, with a likely MUBI streaming release to follow. Yes—and it features both O'Connor and Mescal singing. It'll be well worth the price of a ticket just to hear more. This story will be updated.

Hollywood actress Nicole Kidman and Vogue's Anna Wintour lead the stars in center stage in the royal box during Sunday's Wimbledon men's final between Carlos Alcaraz and Jannik Sinner Nicole Kidman and Vogue editor-in-chief Dame Anna Wintour lead the glamour in the royal box at Wimbledon's men's singles final on Sunday, capturing attention as they enjoyed the hotly anticipated match between Carlos Alcaraz and Jannik Sinner. Oscar-winning actress Nicole, 58, looked as chic as ever as she modelled a crisp white blazer and shirt, with her new blonde locks styled to perfection. The actress was pictured smiling and laughing as she appeared to be in an engaged conversation with fashionista Wintour, 75, who stayed true to her iconic style with dark oversized sunglasses, a floral-embellished dress, and a bold green statement necklace. The exciting day of tennis attracted a whole host of other notable guests too, including Keira Knightley, who sat nearby Nicole and Anna alongside her husband, James Righton, who is best known as part of the Klaxons. Keira, 40, opted for a clean, belted white ensemble complemented by black sunglasses and a classic pearl necklace. Meanwhile, her husband looked suave as he matched her summer vibe in a cream double-breasted suit and tie. Seated next to the loved-up couple were Irish actors Andrew Scott, 48, and P aul Mescal, 29, who recently starred together in All of Us Strangers. Scott, famed for his roles in Fleabag and Ripley, wore a beige light suit paired with gold-rimmed sunglasses. Meanwhile, Normal People star Paul, who is also widely known for Gladiator II, added a splash of colour with a patterned tie over a white shirt and dark navy jacket. The famous friends appeared to be having a great time as they were pictured laughing together and chatting with Kiera as they watched the match between Alcaraz and Sinner. Hollywood actor Matthew McConaughey also made an appearance at the Grand Finale at Wimbledon today as he was seen laughing while chatting to legend Andre Agassi as he walked into the Royal Box. The How To Lose A Guy In Ten Days star, 55, was all smiles as he lapped up the sunshine centre court while dressed in a suave white three-piece suit complete with a green patterned tie. Matthew was joined by acting royalty John Lithgow as he took his seat at the event. Among the royal attendees were Peep Show's Sophie Winkleman and her husband, Lord Frederick Windsor, the latter being a son of Prince Michael of Kent. Sophie, who is officially styled as Lady Frederick, looked elegant as she modelled a vibrant green sleeveless printed dress as they arrived for the day's matches. Elsewhere, Kensington Palace confirmed the Prince and Princess of Wales would also attend the final. Kate Middleton, 43, patron of the All England Lawn Tennis Club, received a standing ovation on Saturday when she presented the women's singles trophy to Iga Swiatek, highlighting her continuing support for the tournament. On Sunday, Kate looked gorgeous in a royal blue dress as she attended the Wimbledon final with her husband, Prince William and their three children, Prince George, Princess Charlotte, and Prince Louis. Last year, Kate presented the Wimbledon men's final trophy to Alcaraz in her second public engagement since she announced her cancer diagnosis. And it was another scorcher today for attendees as temperatures climbed to 27°C in southwest London as excitement built for the match that would close out two weeks of thrilling tennis action. The royal box was full of excitement as it set the scene for a memorable finale between Spain's defending champion Alcaraz and Italy's world number one Sinner.
