PREMIUM SPOTLIGHT ON 'MAMMA MIA! HERE WE GO AGAIN!' WITH MERYL STREEP, AMANDA SEYFRIED, JULIE WALTERS, CELIA IMRIE, PIERCE BROSNAN, COLIN FIRTH, CHER, ANDY GARCIA! CHARACTER POSTERS!

 MAMMA MIA HERE WE GO AGAIN
Mamma Mia sings again July 20th!
MEET THE CAST OF THE SEQUEL
You can almost hear the sound of Abba's greatest hits as MAMMA MIA: HERE WE GO AGAIN is ready to dance its way into cinemas this weekend! And speaking of those songs, you will again hear Waterloo, I Have a Dream, Dancing Queen, Fernando and of course, Mamma Mia in the sequel too! Directed by Ol Parker, it is opening July 20th set after the events of the first film with flashbacks to 1979 to tell the story of how Donna came to be on the island of Kalokairi and trying to figure out who fathered her daughter, Sophie.
DONNA IS DEAD!
Five years after the events of Mamma Mia!, on the Greek island of Kalokairi, Sophie (Amanda Seyfried) is pregnant with Sky's (Dominic Cooper) child while running her mother's (Meryl Streep) villa. Her relationship with Sky has been turbulent for some time, giving her cause to doubt that she can survive without her mother, Donna, who had passed away one year prior. With Tanya (Christine Baranski) and Rosie's (Julie Walters) guidance, Sophie will find out more of Donna's past, including how she fronted The Dynamos, started her villa on the island from nothing, met each one of Sophie's dads (Pierce Brosnan, Stellan Skarsg�rd, and Colin Firth), and raised a daughter, without a mother to guide her. She also has an unexpected visit from someone she has never even met: her grandmother, Ruby Sheridan (Cher).

WHO ELSE IS IN THE FILM?
With the flashbacks featuring rather heavily in the movie with the main character from the original 2008 movie now dead and gone, the cast will also include younger versions of the leading stars and thus Lily James joins the movie as young Donna,  Jessica Keenan Wynn as Young Tanya, Alexa Davies as Young Rosie. When it comes to boys, Jeremy Irvine joins the cast as Irish American architect Young Sam, Hugh Skinner as British banker Young Harry and Josh Dylan as Young Bill, Swedish sailor and travel writer! Andy Garc�a is Fernando Cienfuegos, the manager of the Hotel Bella Donna, old friend of Ruby�s! Celia Imrie is Vice-Chancellor! The movie was shot last year in the wonderful seaside of Croatia where Game of Thrones is also being shot!

RALPH FIENNES TO PLAY COMPOSER HANDEL IN HILARIOUS 18TH CENTURY COMEDY 'HALLELUJAH'! JULIE WALTERS, COLIN FIRTH TO LEAD 'SECRET GARDEN' PERIOD SET ADAPTATION!

'THE SECRET GARDEN' 
JULIE WALTERS AND COLIN FIRTH TO LEAD NEW FILM ADAPTATION
Colin Firth will be Archibald Craven
Only a month or two ago I informed you that our favourite Studiocanal is planning a new big screen adaptation of THE SECRET GARDEN and now they have stars too, massive thespians! Julie Walters and Colin Firth will lead the cast in the story moved from the Edwardian era to 1947, on the eve of Partition in India, and in the aftermath of WW2 in Britain.
Set in England and based on Frances Hodgson Burnett�s 1911 book, THE SECRET GARDEN tells the story of Mary Lennox (Dixie Egerickx), a prickly and unloved 10 year old girl, born in India to wealthy British parents who never wanted her.
Julie Walters will play the headhousekeeper
When her parents suddenly die, she is sent back to England to live with her uncle, Archibald Craven (Colin Firth), on his remote country estate deep in the Yorkshire moors. There, she begins to uncover many family secrets, particularly when she meets her sickly cousin Colin (Edan Hayhurst), shut away in a wing of the house. Together, the two damaged, slightly misfit children heal each other, partly through their exposure to a wondrous secret garden, lost in the grounds of Misselthwaite Manor. Julie Walters will play Mrs Medlock, the head housekeeper at Misselthwaite. Amir Wilson and Isis Davis will also star.

RALPH FIENNES 
IS HANDEL IN 'HALLELUJAH'
Fiennes will be famous composer Handel
In another period set movie, Ralph Fiennes and director Chris Addison will work together on comedy drama HALLELUJAH a period set movie on famous composer George Frederick Handel and the chaotic, spectacular first performance of his Messiah.
Set in a riotous 18th century London and Dublin, the farce follows drunk and cantankerous Handel who is a forgotten man to all but his whip smart valet. Worse still, he has lost his inspiration to compose. However, when he overhears the singing of famous actress Susannah Cibber, the composer is moved to write once again and King George II tasks him to create an oratorio to celebrate the new Irish Viceroy in Dublin. Yet, when Handel approaches Susannah with the news, he is shocked to learn that not only does she have a fear of singing in public, she�s also on the run from her vengeful husband. The motley crew travels to Dublin only to realize that London�s gin-soaked alleys are no match for the competing, sectarian politics of Dublin�s choirs, the stupidity of English overlords, and the hypocritical morals of the day. Confronted with these odds, Handel has no choice but to defy his critics and keep going. Show must go on.
