The synopsis for the upcoming movie reads: ‘Set 183 years before the events chronicled in the original trilogy of films.
‘A sudden attack by Wulf, a clever and ruthless Dunlending lord seeking vengeance for the death of his father, forces Helm and his people to make a daring last stand in the ancient stronghold of the Hornburg – a mighty fortress that will later come to be known as Helm’s Deep.
‘Finding herself in an increasingly desperate situation, Hera, the daughter of Helm, must summon the will to lead the resistance against a deadly enemy intent on their total destruction.’
Gaia’s father Greg is Dame Emma’s second husband, former Strictly star and Walking On Sunshine actor.
Emma has been happily married to her second husband Greg for 20 years.
Gaia made her acting debut in the BBC series Silent Witness – where she played plays university student Jo Reynolds whose mother, the controversial health secretary, is assassinated – sparking the interest of forensic pathologists.
In 2021, Gaia detailed her three-year battle with anorexia – and credited her parents for saving her life by staging an emergency intervention.
She developed anorexia aged 16 which left her so thin she was unable to even sit on a chair without it being painful. She was later admitted to rehab in 2017.

Her family were supporting her the whole way, and has now been in recovery for over three years (pictured together above with brother Tindyebwa)
She spoke out about her illness for the first time with The Sun on Sunday, saying: ‘Anorexia makes you really good at gaslighting people, making it sound like they’re insane. My parents would say, ‘Gaia, we heard you working out at 3am.’ And I’d say, ‘No you didn’t, it was just the house moving. I was asleep.”
Gaia spoke of how Greg, Emma, her family, including brother Tindy and best friend gathered together for an intervention, with Gaia agreeing to a three-month rehab stint after Greg said: ‘I don’t know where my child is any more.’
Adding that it was a ‘kick in the teeth’ she added: ‘I had to listen to the people I loved most in the world who, at the time, I’d really forgotten about, tell me what I was doing.’
She said: ‘That’s when I said I’d go to rehab. I went on December 29, 2017, and stayed for three months. Since then I’ve had a lot of therapy — and I’ll always be grateful for that, because it saved my life.’
Anorexia is a serious mental illness where a person restricts their food intake, which often causes them to be severely underweight. Many also exercise excessively.
Some sufferers may experience periods of bingeing, followed by purging. Sufferers often have a distorted view of themselves and think they are larger than they really are.
