And filming for the much-anticipated sequel, starring Australian actress Rose Byrne, is well underway in Australia.

A grey stone castle is set among lush greenery, including a generously-sized vegetable patch.

Just a few metres away is a cottage complete with a sun room and flower beds.

Rose wore a floaty, floral print dress with a matching leather belt and looked contemplative in the garden setting as the cameras rolled.
