The British are indeed coming, and Jason Bell is helping to orchestrate the charge. The London-born photographer, whose work appears frequently in Vanity Fair, had the idea to shoot an all-U.K. edition of the magazine’s annual Hollywood portfolio after observing that “this British invasion of Hollywood has gotten so out of hand.”

For the first time ever, this year’s 30-page portfolio—featuring no fewer than 44 Blighty icons, from Eddie Redmayne to Dame Judi Dench—comes accompanied by a short film, directed by Bell and viewable right here on VF.com. The film, told in three parts, depicts the Brits “Preparing for War”, then “Coming to America” to infiltrate the film industry. Given the number of British actors nominated for Academy Awards this year, the title of the third film should come as no surprise: “Victory Is Assured.” (source)
