Who needs a royal wedding when you’ve got Anne Hathaway’s very long British engagement? Thew new trailer for One Day — based on the book by David Nicholls, and adapted by An Education director Lone Scherfig — casts Hathaway as the British Emma, whose life intertwines with star-crossed college chum Dexter (Jim Sturgess) as we visit them for one day each year. Much like her star turn in The Princess Diaries, Hathaway starts out homely and ill-clothed and then metamorphoses into, well, Anne Hathaway; meanwhile, Sturgess starts out as a playboy wearing hardly any clothes at all, then blossoms into a more dependable silver fox. But enough preamble: You will want to talk about Hathaway’s accent, and we’re not getting in the way of that any longer.
