It Will Probably Be a Smash

New Zealander Nico Evers-Swindell, who plays the role of Prince William in the forthcoming film William and Kate: The Movie, is “saddled” with some rather dubious lines according to Guardian reviewer Stephen Bates. “Evers-Swindell, whose acting varies from plain wooden to teak-like, which may not be so far from the original, but is somehow less engaging. Who could blame him with lines such as: ‘I am sorry … I just need some space.’ So bad it’s awful, toe-curlingly, teeth-furringly, pillow-bitingly ghastly. You begin to wonder what the happy young couple have done to deserve this. It will probably be a smash.” Evers-Swindell starred in the Edge of Darkness with Mel Gibson last year and has made appearances in NCIS: Los Angeles and Law & Order. William and Kate: The Movie is released on DVD in the UK on 25 April.
