Harry Styles films scenes with on-screen wife Emma Corrin and gay lover David Dawson at war memorial in Brighton for LGBT drama My Policeman

Harry Styles, Emma Corrin and David Dawson were spotted filming new scenes for upcoming gay romance drama My Policeman in Brighton on Monday.

The One Direction star, 27, is taking the lead in the movie, which is set in Brighton in the 1950s, and based on Bethan Roberts' novel, focusing on police officer Tom, who is gay, but married to Marion (Emma) due to societal expectations. He goes on to have an affair with museum curator Patrick Hazelwood (David).

The trio were filming at the Chattri, a war memorial that stands on a site where a number of Indian soldiers who fought for the British Empire were cremated during World War I.

An insider said: 'Harry will be having sex on screen and they want it to look as real as possible. The plan is to shoot two romps between Harry and David, then another scene where Harry is naked on his own.'

A source added to The Sun: 'Not much is going to be left to the imagination. Harry is throwing himself into this new role and is really excited about the challenge, even though it’s a daunting task.

'He always wants to do things that people wouldn’t expect and challenge what people think about him — and this film will really do that.'

A spokesperson for Harry declined to comment when approached by MailOnline. MailOnline also contacted a representative for David at the time.
