Thatcher is back. Meryl Streep will play the former prime minister in the forthcoming biopic The Iron Lady, which has started filming this week in London. In make-up, there seems to be little between the Tory prime minister and the Academy Award-winning actress. Streep has the iconic Thatcher bouffant and the famous pearl necklace.
Streep caused a stir last month when she visited the Commons and watched David Cameron take on Ed Miliband at Prime Minister’s Questions. Jim Broadbent has been confirmed as Thatcher’s long-suffering husband, Denis.
