According to the Daily Mail, Lily has joined the cast of ‘Adam Jones’ alongside Bradley Cooper and Sienna Miller. We do not have more information about it, her name is just mentioned but it could be the new project Lily talked about in her interview for Glamour.

DAILY MAIL – Yum, yum! Culinary fever has hit the movies. Ovens are hot!

Sienna Miller will play a sous chef in the new Bradley Cooper film Adam Jones.
Cooper plays the title character: a genius cook who returns to London after a period away from the kitchen, detoxifying.

Now he wants a third Michelin star, and assembles an A-list line-up to help him.

Many of the actors spent a day with Marcus Wareing at his two Michelin-starred Marcus restaurant at the Berkeley in Knightsbridge, to prepare for their roles.

Sienna practised her chopping skills, and watched how Wareing and his colleagues worked their magic with food. (The actress has been busy: she’s been shooting another film, Black Mass, with Johnny Depp, in which she has to age from 28 to 76.)

Adam Jones, which has a script by Steven Knight, will start filming soon, in and around London.

Director John Wells and his casting team, with help no doubt from producer Harvey Weinstein, have gathered a cast that includes Emma Thompson, Daniel Bruhl, Riccardo Scamarcio (Italy’s answer to Brad Pitt), Lily James, Jamie Dornan and Alicia Vikander.

Cooper told me about Adam Jones (then titled Chef) two years ago. In the meantime, Jon Favreau made his own foodie movie, also called Chef, which has developed a cult following.

Then there’s The 100-Foot Journey, an enormously charming tale of rival restaurateurs in France, starring Helen Mirren and Om Puri, which will open on September 5 (it also features Manish Dayal and Charlotte LeBon).

Why are these movies so popular? Oscar-winning Helen summed it up succinctly. ‘We all like to eat.
