The romantic comedy Premature is set to hit cinemas, with Glasgow taking center stage as the film’s main location rather than standing in for another city. Directed by Kevin Walls, the film was shot across various parts of Glasgow, including the iconic Kelvingrove Art Gallery and an east end flat. The story follows Cameron, played by James Rottger, and Eilidh, portrayed by Elle Watson, two mismatched flatmates who are unexpectedly faced with the prospect of parenthood after a one-night stand. Much of the filming took place in the east end flat, with some key scenes shot in a local close, or small neighborhood. Elle Watson, who plays Eilidh, noted that Glasgow is often depicted in media as a dark and gritty place. She appreciated how the film showcases a different side of the city, highlighting it as bright and humorous. Walls, the director, admitted that some of the film’s location choices were influenced by financial constraints, explaining that they had to request permission from local authorities to film in certain areas. This was especially true for scenes shot in more residential neighborhoods. Premature marks Kevin Walls’ debut as a feature film director, following his work on short films and commercials. A Kickstarter campaign helped fund the film’s cinema release, allowing it to reach a wider audience. In the film, Eilidh dreams of becoming an artist but feels her life isn’t going as planned, while Cameron, her precise and career-focused flatmate, experiences a shift in his life after the unexpected pregnancy. Rottger, who plays Cameron, connected with the character’s journey, particularly the loss of control that comes with parenthood. Watson emphasized that the film’s themes are highly relatable, especially for women in their late 20s or 30s who are contemplating parenthood. Walls, who faced doubts during the creative process, expressed that seeing the finished film on the big screen would make all the effort worthwhile. Premature offers a fresh, humorous take on the challenges of love, life, and unexpected change, set against the backdrop of a city often overlooked for its lighter side.
