Fresh from his appearance at Cannes Film Festival British actor and director Callum Turner is continuing to grab the attention of the film industry after being named one of Screen International's Stars of Tomorrow, which previously predicted the rise of Benedict Cumberbatch, Carey Mulligan and Emily Blunt.

The rising star has just finished filming Paul McGuigan's Frankenstein alongside James McAvoy and Daniel Radcliffe (due for release in October 2015) and currently filming the lead in Jack Thorne's Channel 4 series Glue which is scheduled to air in autumn. The London native, born in Hammersmith, has also just appeared in John Boorman's Queen and Country at the 67th Cannes Film Festival starring alongside Richard E Grant, Vanessa Kirby and David Thewlis. And it looks like it's set to be a busy year for the 24 year old, who has also dabbled in modelling, having appeared in campaigns for Burberry and publications including Arena Homme +.
