Drew revealed on UK chat show, Lorraine that she came on board the project after Toni wrote her a letter, asking her to join the film.

“I did just have a baby, it was a very inconvenient time but I just fell love with this thing,” she explained, before adding: “This film is about how you loved someone.”

“The point of this is to hold on tight to people that you love,” Drew mused.

Miss you already hits cinemas on October 8th.
