Filming for the Robert Hendy-Freegard biopic, Chasing Agent Freegard, got underway earlier this month.
And James Norton looked convincing in the titular role of the British car salesman, who masqueraded as an MI5 agent and swindled thousands of pounds out of his victims, while on set in London on Thursday.
The English actor, 35, got into character by sporting slicked back hair, a cocky expression and a white shirt, rolled up to the elbows, as he mingled with the crew.
