Knightley, 33, and actor Jessie Buckley will play members of the Women’s Liberation Movement. Hawes, 42, who most recently featured alongside Richard Madden in Bodyguard, will take on the role of Miss World pageant executive Julia Morley. Gugu Mbatha-Raw, the star of “San Junipero” episode of Black Mirror, will play Miss Grenada. The 1970 pageant was also famed for being the first to be won by a black woman, which caused further controversy, as suspicions were raised over the judges’ voting system.
