Chris Floyd - Emily Watson / You

Chris Floyd was commissioned to photograph the wonderful Emily Watson for his first cover shoot of 2026, for You.

He first shot Emily 30 years ago, on the set Metroland in Paris in which she starred with Christian Bale (the same year the multi-award winning Breaking the Waves was released).

Emily stars in one of this year’s biggest films, #Hamnet, in which she plays Paul Mescal’s mum (for the second time!) and she is also a mentor to Golden Globe-nominated Jessie Buckley.

Styling by Sophie Dearden, assisted by Hope Palmer. Make up by Justine Jenkins. Hair by Narad Kutowaroo.
