Written and directed by Benjamin Cleary and VR creator Michael O'Connor, "Glimpse" will be unveiled at the Virtual Reality Interactive showcase at the Venice Film Festival.

The story focuses on a heartbroken panda, played by Egerton, a talented illustrator who is going through a painful breakup from his girlfriend a deer called Rice (Boynton), who dreams of becoming a musician.

"I was so excited to get involved with 'Glimpse'. Its storyline and themes are some I find the most exciting and intriguing to explore.

"I love that as beautiful and enchanting as it is visually, it doesn't sugar-coat anything. It feels really poignant, authentic and hopeful. I fell in love with the characters and the script immediately," Boyton said in a statement issued to Variety.
