She plays the Prima Ballerina in a new film - Nicola Peltz Beckham takes center stage in Prima, her bold ballet drama
Nicola Peltz Beckham, wife of Brooklyn Beckham and daughter-in-law of Victoria and David Beckham, is set to star in Prima, a new indie drama about a prima ballerina caught in a power struggle over her ballet company. The film marks the directorial debut of brothers Luca and Alessandro Morelli, who are helming the project. Peltz, known for both her acting and high-profile marriage to the Beckham son, shared her excitement as production gets underway.
The story follows Peltz’s character, a talented ballerina raised under the strict guidance of her grandmother. As tensions rise, she becomes entangled in a fierce battle for control of the ballet company. The screenplay is based on a concept and character originally created by Peltz herself.
Joining Peltz in the cast are Faye Dunaway, Mira Sorvino, Jack Huston, and Betty Gabriel. The film’s narrative explores ambition, family, and the cutthroat world of professional ballet. Peltz has appeared in films like Transformers: Age of Extinction and The Last Airbender, as well as the TV series Bates Motel. Despite her acting career, she remains widely recognised for her personal life, particularly her 2022 marriage to Brooklyn Beckham. Reports of an alleged rift between the couple and his family have kept her in the public eye. The actress recently took to Instagram to express her enthusiasm for Prima, calling it a passion project. With production now in full swing, the film is shaping up to be a bold step for both Peltz and the Morelli brothers.
The drama is currently filming, with Peltz leading a cast of experienced actors. Prima will showcase her return to a major on-screen role while introducing the Morelli brothers as new voices in directing. The film’s release date has yet to be announced.
