Bits & Pieces
Although much of the content of Beautiful Boy’s new second trailer is repeated from this first trailer, there are some important differences. Firstly, the son remains off screen for the whole trailer and secondly the emphasis is firmly on the ensuing strain on his parents (Michael Sheen and Maria Bello) as they contend with grief, blame, self-recrimination and anger.

Wales By Bike Campaign
Michael Sheen is backing a new leaflet urging bikers in Wales to slow down and stay safe on the roads. He has given his backing to the Wales By Bike campaign after learning that there were 25 motorbike fatalities across Wales last year. “While the number of bike fatalities has dropped since its peak in 2007, sadly one death on the road is one death too many,” he said. “Through my work with TREAT, I have come across many people whose lives have changed forever as a result of an accident. That’s why initiatives such as Wales By Bike are so important as they drive home the safe riding message to bikers so they don’t end up another statistic on our roads.”
