THE DANISH GIRL is based on David Ebershoff's 2001 novel, which centers on Einar Wegener, a Danish painter "who became the first man to undergo a sex-change operation".

Redmayne's other upcoming projects include Jupiter Ascending and Theory of Everything. He has also appeared on-screen in My Week with Marilyn, The Other Boleyn Girl, Elizabeth: The Golden Age and more, as well as the TV mini-series Tess of the D'Urbervilles and The Pillars of the Earth. Redmayne won the 2010 Tony Award for Best Featured Actor in a Play for his performance in Red.

Among Hooper's directing credits are The King's Speech, The Damned United, Red Dust, the TV mini-series John Adams, and the TV series EastEnders and Byker Grove.

Prior to their work on LES MIS, Hooper and Redmayne also teamed on the TV mini-series Elizabeth I.
