‘Hereditary’s’ Toni Collette and ‘Homelands’ Damien Lewis have joined the cast on true-life drama ‘Dream Horse’.
The film is based on the true story of one woman’s extraordinary dream to breed and raise a champion racehorse on the allotment of her forgotten Welsh village – and of how she brings her entire community with her.
Collette will take the role of Jan Vokes, a middle-aged barmaid at a working men’s club who bring together a syndicate of local people to breed a foal – which they name Dream Alliance. Lewis will play Howard Davies, the local accountant she persuades to join her in running the racing syndicate.
