Freida Pinto didn’t think she’d ever star in period drama

Freida Pinto “never thought it was possible” for her to star in a period drama. The 37-year-old actress stars in “Mr Malcolm’s List” as Selina Dalton, a young woman in 1800s England who helps her friend to get revenge on a suitor when she fails to meet his requirements for a potential bride and she attributes the success of Netflix’s “Bridgerton” to allow people to “broaden their minds” to diversity in casting.

Speaking about the film – which she first saw a script for four years ago – she said: “I thought, ‘You don’t see brown people falling in love in period movies – what’s the catch?’
The movie is influenced by more modern romantic films, including Pinto’s favourite movie, “Notting Hill”.

She told Britain’s Marie Claire magazine: “It was all of the ’90s rom-coms: ‘Bridget Jones’s Diary’, ‘Four Weddings and a Funeral’, ‘Notting Hill’. Everything about (‘Notting Hill’) is just perfect, in my opinion
