After nearly a decade, Tom Ford has announced his latest film project, Cry To Heaven. Here&rsquo;s everything we know about the star-studded movie Ford is directing.&nbsp;

<a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/travel-living/tom-ford-mansions-portfolio-london-home" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Tom Ford</a> is known to combine fashion aesthetics with compelling narratives, and his upcoming movie Cry To Heaven is slated to do just that. Written, directed, and produced by Ford, Cry To Heaven is a film adaptation of the Anne Rice novel by the same name and will be produced through Ford&rsquo;s Fade To Black production company. Per Deadline, Ford&rsquo;s sights have been set on this project for about a year, and he has just now compiled the perfect script and cast to bring this story to life.&nbsp;
The 1994 American gothic horror film Interview With A Vampire was the first film to take inspiration from one of Rice&rsquo;s novels (Interview With A Vampire). But this adaptation showcases Rice&rsquo;s opera-inspired story (Cry To Heaven) that has never been seen on the big screen before.&nbsp;
In the world of fashion, Ford focuses on intense themes and artistic freedoms. Cry To Heaven&rsquo;s novel inspiration touches on those exact ideas, making it the perfect storyline for Ford to play with. The original novel follows the story of a Venetian noble and a singer from Calabria, each of who have experienced intense betrayal and is looking for a way to succeed in opera. Actors and stars like Adele, Nicholas Hoult, and <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/pop-culture/sam-aaron-taylor-johnson-relationship-timeline-marriage-kids-james-bond-007" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Aaron Taylor-Johnson</a> are just a few of the cast members fans can expect to see in the upcoming romantic, dark, and artistic story.&nbsp;
Without further ado, join L&rsquo;OFFICIEL as we dive into everything you need to know about Ford&rsquo;s direction, plot, and cast of his upcoming movie.&nbsp;

<h2>Cry To Heaven&nbsp;Plot&nbsp;</h2>

Cry To Heaven follows the story of two men in 18th-century Italy, Guido Maffeo and Tonio Treschi. Guido was born as a peasant and was castrated at a young age in order to preserve his soprano voice so he could one day become an opera star. Tonio is a noble Venetian who experiences the worst kind of familial betrayal from the person he was supposed to trust most. Their lives become intertwined in the world of opera when Tonio is sent to study under Guido. 
The plot is set in front of the backdrop of the complex world of Italian opera, with betrayal and revenge as the backbone of the story. The movie is expected to illustrate themes of identity, artistry, betrayal, and love.&nbsp;
