The film, which also stars Thomasin McKenzie, Diana Rigg and Terrence Stamp, has been written by Wright with 1917 co-writer Krysty Wilson-Cairns.
In 2019 Wilson-Cairns told Yahoo that Edgar Wright fans will be pleased with the film.
“[Last Night in Soho] is fun, it’s dark, it’s twisted, it’s thrilling, it’s everything you want from an Edgar Wright movie, and something really different,” the screenwriter said.
“I’ve seen early cuts of it and I was blown away by it.”
Last Night In Soho comes to cinemas in 2021.
