Tilda Swinton, Sienna Miller, Kate Moss Dramatize Passages from

LONDON — It’s Edward Enninful, all over the place.

The editor in chief of British Vogue enlisted the assistance of his director husband, Alec Maxwell, to create a three-minute film featuring greater than a dozen of the couple’s celebrity friends reading excerpts from his latest memoir, “A Visible Man,” which was published on Tuesday.

The short film includes Tilda Swinton, Kate Moss, Sienna Miller, Daniel Kaluuya, Simone Ashley and others reading or acting out passages from the book. They’re all wearing his uniform of a black suit with a black or white shirt, and reading glasses.

“This film tells my husband’s story. I desired to suggest his bravery and humor and to present it as a trailer for his book narrated by a few of the people closest to him,” said Maxwell, who works under the name Kloss Movies.

“Edward wrote the book throughout lockdown, right under my nose. I knew a number of the story already, but not all, so this whole thing feels very personal,” Maxwell added.

Enninful also appears within the video, sitting in a director’s chair with the open book on his lap, and chuckling at a few of the funnier presentations.

“My message is about inclusion and representation, and I hope the film and my memoir encourage all to open doors and walk through,” said Enninful.

In an interview with WWD this week, Enninful revealed that if the memoir gets was a movie or a series, he would like to have Jamaican-born actor and former model Michael Ward play him.

“He really looks like me once I was an adolescent,” Enninful said.

If Ward is simply too busy, then anyone from this celebrity crew could easily tackle the role.
