Nicola Peltz Beckham’s behind-the-scenes Prima photos are drawing fresh attention, giving fans another look at the ballet training and set work behind her leading role.

The actress captioned the Instagram carousel, “some happy bts of prima,” alongside ballet, ribbon, sparkle and flower emojis. 

Brooklyn Beckham also appears in the collection, joining his wife during production. The Mirror and Daily Mail focused on Peltz’s flexibility and ballerina look, but the post also gives fans a wider view of the production.

Peltz stars as Margo, a dedicated classical dancer whose position inside a traditional ballet company is threatened by a change in leadership.

The carousel includes images of Peltz extending her leg into ballet poses and spending time with members of the production.

Brooklyn appears in the collection, while the Mirror reported that the photos also showed Peltz with photographer Annie Leibovitz and her mother, Claudia Heffner Peltz.

Peltz has been documenting Prima throughout its development, including rehearsal photographs, editing-room updates and material from a private screening held in May. Brooklyn has repeatedly appeared in her posts connected to the project and publicly celebrated her work on the movie.

Prima Places Peltz at the Center of a Ballet Power Struggle

Deadline announced the project in January with Peltz, Faye Dunaway, Jack Huston, Mira Sorvino and Betty Gabriel in the cast. Luca and Alessandro Morelli, known professionally as the Morelli Brothers, directed the film as their feature debut.

Margo was raised by her strict grandmother, played by Dunaway, who considers herself a protector of classical ballet. The balance inside the company begins to shift when its leader, played by Huston, marries a contemporary choreographer portrayed by Gabriel.

The marriage triggers a dispute over the company’s traditions and future, forcing Margo to reconsider the sacrifices she has made for her career. Peltz developed the original story and character, while Jenny Taylor-Whitehorn wrote the latest screenplay draft from an earlier script by Allie Avital and Alia Azamat Ashkenazi.

A Private Screening Already Brought Brooklyn’s Support

Brooklyn also publicly supported the film after a private Los Angeles screening in May. Geo News reported that East West Bank CEO Dominic Ng hosted the event at San Vicente Bungalows and that Brooklyn wrote he was proud of Peltz for completing the project.

He also congratulated the Morelli Brothers on their directorial debut, writing that he loved the film.

Peltz thanked supporters after the screening and said their backing of independent film meant “more than I can express.” A public release date for Prima has not yet been announced.
