Othello was filmed during its run at the Theatre Royal Haymarket in association with Spiritland Productions. The production was led by David Harewood as Othello, Toby Jones as Iago, Caitlin FitzGerald as Desdemona, Vinette Robinson as Emilia, and Luke Treadaway as Cassio.
The cast was completed by David Ahmad (Gratiano), Gethin Alderman (Nicos, Understudy Roderigo and Lodovico), Ewan Black (Montano, Understudy Iago and Fight Captain), Tom Byrne (Roderigo), Jonathan Cobb (Telemachos, Understudy Cassio, Montano and Memet), Peter Guinness (Brabantio), Felix Hayes (Duke of Venice), Jasmin Hinds (Julio/Julia, Understudy Emilia, Bianca and Nicos), Wela Mbusi (Memet, Marcus and Understudy Othello and Telemachos), Jude Owusu (Lodovico), Tom Peters (Vincenzio and Understudy Brabantio, Duke of Venice and Gratiano) and Rose Riley (Bianca and Understudy Desdemona).
The epic story of manipulation, jealousy, and toxic masculinity has been revived many times on the London stage over the years. Staged in the West End for a limited run last Autumn, this was the first in a series of contemporary productions planned by Tom Morris for Chris Harper Productions.
Othello is produced by Chris Harper Productions, Access Entertainment, Kevin and Kate McGrath with Catherine Schreiber, Michael Watt Productions, Carolyn Lawson, Laurence Myers, James Seabright.
It will be screened in cinemas across the UK, US, Australia and selected international territories from 4 March 2026.
