Arthur Christmas world premiere
Written by Zen Terrelonge
Santa Claus is coming to town. Well, city more specifically.
Today is the world premiere of Arthur Christmas, which takes place in London.
So how does Santa deliver all those presents in one night?
The answer is Santa’s (Jim Broadbent) (although I prefer the term Father Christmas) high-tech base hidden deep beneath the North Pole away from prying eyes.
Santa’s tight ship is held together by eldest son Steve (Hugh Laurie) but one Christmas Eve a child’s delivery is missed.
This leads youngest son Arthur (James McAvoy) to step into action with Grandsanta (Bill Nighy) and restore the magic of Christmas.
Celebrities thought to attend includes James McAvoy, Bill Nighy, Hugh Laurie and more. It’s likely some faces from TOWIE, Made In Chelsea and Big Brother will also turn up to cover the Reality TV bracket. Justin Bieber is in Belfast for the MTV EMAs at present but could he make a surprise appearance?
The premiere will be held at the Empire cinema in Leicester Square London on 6th November.
Arthur Christmas is released in cinemas 11th November.
