News about Freddie Highmore

Freddie Highmore has booked his first acting gig following the wrap The Good Doctor after its seven-season run on ABC. After playing the lead role of Dr. Sean Murphy since 2017 in the medical drama, the British actor is now set to slip into the shoes of Edward, who just happens to be the son of a retired assassin named Julie ( Keeley Hawes ) in the upcoming Amazon Prime thriller The Assassin. The story follows Julie as she's now living a secluded life on a remote Greek island with her estranged son who is now seeking answers about his father and his mother's past, according to TV Line. But eventually, both find themselves in the crosshairs of danger when the former assassin's past catches up with her, and the newfound mother-and-son duo end up on the run for their lives. The shoot for the upcoming series, which was created by Harry and Jack Williams, only just started earlier in August in Greece .

The network announced on Thursday that the series would come to an end after its upcoming seventh season, which will premiere on February 20. Both Instagram and X, the show's predecessor to Twitter, were flooded with updates about the cancellation; although some people were mourning the loss, others slammed the series as "ableist" and rejoiced the decision. The show, based on a 2013 South Korean series of the same name, premiered in 2017 and stars Freddie Highmore as Dr. Shaun Murphy, an autistic surgeon with a turbulent past, which is back to haunt him as he adjusts to some of the more challenging realities of being a doctor.

With upcoming season 7, the Good Doctor will come to an end. With the forthcoming season, the medical drama, starring Freddie Highmore, 31, as Dr. Shaun Murphy, will come to an end. 'Playing Dr. Shaun Murphy has been an incredible privilege and one of the most enjoyable and enriching experiences of my life,' Highmore said in a tweet.

When she first appeared in Hollywood as one of Hollywood's youngest stars, he praised her as a'mother figure' who helped him get to grips with acting. The chemistry between Freddie Highmore and Helena Bonham Carter, who first appeared together on screen 24 years ago as mother and son, is clearly as strong as ever. Last week, the actresses and her two Tibetan terriers were seen chatting and joking as they took a walk in North London. The 57-year-old paired black harem-style trousers with a green flowery shirt, colorful socks, and black boots, while Highmore, 31, appeared more muted in black jeans and a jacket, a blue shirt, and a pink-and-blue baseball cap, sticking true to her signature eclectic style.
