The movie was nominated last year for best film at the Moscow International Film Festival.

Spokeswoman Fiona Howe said: “Gavin, who trained at RADA, scored the role of bad-boy lover Zac against dozens of hopefuls. Ahead of the film shoot, he took himself off to the mid-Wales village location to get into character, living rough in a tree house, fishing and cooking over an open fire.”

Gavin has previously played at Chichester Festival Theatre, and this year received a commendation from the Ian Charleson Theatre Awards for his role as Puck in Michael Grandage’s West End production of A Midsummer Night’s Dream. He recently appeared on Sky TV in Penny Dreadful. Delight is his first feature film.

Delight, directed by Gareth Jones, tells the story of a female war photographer who comes to terms with her buried trauma through a relationship with the son of a former lover and comrade-in-arms.

It features Jeanne Balibar (Grace of Monaco, Va Savoir, The Duchess of Langeais) in her first leading role in a British film. Tickets: www.chichestercinema.org/film/delight.
