The crime drama London Boulevard focuses on the story of Harry Mitchel, who tries to sever ties with his past after being released from prison. However, Mitchel's attempt to build a new life does not progress easily due to both the pressure from his former circle and the growing tension in London's underworld.
In the film, Mitchel is forced to work for ruthless crime boss Rob Gant under pressure from his former associate, Billy. Meanwhile, he begins working as a bodyguard and assistant for Charlotte, a famous actress trying to live away from the public eye by avoiding the paparazzi. As an intimacy develops between Mitchel and Charlotte, the murder of his close friend Joe pulls the character back into violence.
The cast features Colin Farrell in the role of Harry Mitchel, while Keira Knightley plays the character of Charlotte. The film also stars David Thewlis as Jordan, Anna Friel as Briony Mitchel, Ben Chaplin as Billy Norton, Ray Winstone as Rob Gant, Eddie Marsan as DI Bailey, Sanjeev Bhaskar as Dr. Sanji Raju, Stephen Graham as Danny, Ophelia Lovibond as Penny, and Jamie Campbell Bower as Whiteboy.
Most of the filming for London Boulevard took place in London, the capital of England. Some scenes were shot at Ealing Studios in London, while others were filmed at the historic Hammerwood Park estate in East Sussex.
