A Netflix film shot in Suffolk starring two award-winning actors will air next year. 

Joy, which is based on the world's first IVF baby, Louise Joy Brown, was filmed in the county earlier this year. 

The Daily Mail reports film crews headed to the Suffolk coast in September.

Bill Nighy, James Norton and Thomasin McKenzie are among the famous faces that are set to feature in the biopic.

A release date for the film is currently unclear but it is set for 2024.

Bill Nighy is well-known face in Suffolk, having resided in the northern part of the county for a number of years. 

The A-list actor took part in the Channel 5 docuseries Norfolk and Suffolk: Country and Coast earlier this year, narrating the cameras headed to landmarks across the eastern region. 

It is the latest occasion that Suffolk has featured in a Netflix show. 

Lavenham and Kersey have been used as the backdrop for filming, while Elveden Estate also featured in the new film 'Heart of Stone' earlier this year.
