At the press conference, Watson said that he wanted to remove the calendar in a new style and sought to make them photos with still images from the film. However, with the cinema new release Pirelli have in common and the format of the images — they are all made in 16:9 resolution.
I would like to get people dealing with the calendar, realized that I wanted to explore the inner world photographed by me characters, creating situations that reflect positive thinking modern women
added Watson.

Every frame is its own separate story — the stories that kept in mind Watson, he shared with journalists. One of the most dramatic roles went to Gigi Hadid is a young model that in real life this year renewed relationship with Zane Malik, embodied the image of a woman, broke up with a loved one.

Through the character Gigi Hadid I wanted to convey the image of a woman, think about the future, but experiencing the feeling of loneliness. We see how she was considering in what direction to her life, what she will do tomorrow. I wish she was much more “minimalist” compared to others I have photographed women and their environment,
— said Watson.
In total, the calendar includes 40 color and black and white photos. Pictures from the presentation in his Instagram had shared and Sergei Polunin.
