The Oscar-winning actress has been cast in Burberry's newest campaign, "It's Always Burberry Weather: Postcards From London," alongside models like Lucky Blue Smith, Tyson Beckford, Amelia Gray, Liu Wen, Mona Tougaard and others. But she did more than just strike a pose. Colman stars in four short films directed by Shakespeare in Love helmer John Madden. The clips, featuring Burberry ensembles, find her playing a range of locals (a cricket enthusiast, a tour guide, a chip shop counter clerk, etc.) as she encounters first-time London tourists. "Each film celebrates just a few of the many characters you'll encounter in London," explains Daniel Lee, Burberry's chief creative officer.
