Hollywood star Kate Winslet has revealed that her father Roger John Winslet has received his first vaccination against Covid-19. Winslet appeared on the WTF alongside the Marc Maron Podcast and said it was a great relief for her that her father, 81, received the vaccine.
“He got his first dose. We all have to wait our turn, ”she said.
Vaccination campaigns have begun in many countries around the world.
The Titanic actor was last seen in Francis Lee Ammonite’s romantic drama opposite Saoirse Ronan. The film was inspired by the real-life love story of British palaeontologist Mary Anning (Winslet) and married geologist Charlotte Murchison (Ronan).
The film was screened at the Toronto International Film Festival. It hit theaters in the U.S. on November 13 last year and in Australia on January 14 this year. In the United Kingdom, it will see the light of day on March 26, 2021.
No word has been released from India yet.
Winslet has also been renamed by Titanic director James Cameron in Avatar 2, a series for his 2009 sci-fi film Avatar, which is scheduled for release in 2022.
