Michael Sheen was ‘fascinated’ by Wagatha Christie trial

OHMYGOSSIP — Michael Sheen found the ‘Wagatha Christie’ trial “fascinating”.
The 53-year-old actor plays Coleen Rooney’s barrister, David Sherborne, in Channel 4’s ‘Vardy v Rooney: A Courtroom Drama’, and Michael has admitted to being captivated by the libel case between Coleen, Wayne Rooney’s wife, and Rebekah Vardy, the wife of Jamie Vardy.
Asked what appealed to him about the project, Michael explained: “We only say what was said in court – that was really compelling. As an event, it seemed to say so much about us as a culture. Rather than just being about those people, it puts all of us on trial.
“Essentially there are two working-class young women being shouted at by posh men and everyone really enjoyed it: entertainment meets class war. Football and tabloids … I found it fascinating.”
Earlier this year, Rebekah was ordered to pay £1.5 million towards Coleen’s legal costs after their libel trial.
The TV star was told by the high court that she had to cover 90 percent of Coleen’s legal fees following their high-profile court case, which was dubbed the ‘Wagatha Christie’ trial.
Meanwhile, Michael is also preparing for his first directorial role in 2023.
The acclaimed actor explained that the project was delayed because of the COVID-19 pandemic.
Discussing his future plans, Michael told Metro.co.uk: “I’ve got ‘Best Interests’ with Sharon Horgan for the BBC coming up in the spring and the second series of ‘Good Omens’ next summer.
“I’m directing a series for the BBC – the first time I’ve directed anything to do with the camera. I’ve been developing it for a long time – we were ready to do it earlier, but the pandemic shut things down.”
