Producers are Kate Solomon and Kate Winslet. The film was written by Joe Anders. The film’s official logline reads: Goodbye June is a present day, fictional drama, set in England. A touching, yet humorous story which sees a fractured group of siblings pull together under sudden and trying circumstances. Netflix has said the film will go into production “soon.”

Winslet last starred in Lee. The film premiered at the 2023 Toronto Film Festival and has been in theatrical and PVOD release. Directed by Ellen Kuras, Lee stars Winslet as fashion model turned World War II photographer Elizabeth ‘Lee’ Miller.

Winslet’s other credits include Titanic, Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, and Revolutionary Road. She has been nominated for an Oscar seven times, winning one of them: the Best Actress Oscar for the drama The Reader (2008), where she plays a former concentration camp guard.
