"An exclusive featurette for Meryl Streep&amp;#039;s The Iron Lady has debuted on Digital Spy.  The footage shows Streep and director Phyllida Lloyd discussing the movie, and provides a first look at newcomer Alexandra Roach as a young Thatcher. &amp;quot;There was a kind of earnestness about her that seemed entirely correct for the role,&amp;quot; Lloyd said of Roach. &amp;quot;It was immensely important that the audience fell in love with the young Margaret and the young Dennis and believed that they are this young incarnation of their older selves.&amp;quot; The Iron Lady also stars Jim Broadbent as Denis Thatcher and Anthony Head as Geoffrey Howe. Lloyd previously defended Streep&amp;#039;s performance in the film following criticism from former Conservative MP Norman Tebbit.  Broadbent described Streep as the &amp;quot;perfect &amp;quot; candidate to portray the former British prime minister. The Iron Lady will open in cinemas on January 6.
