Last night in Hollywood, The BFG got its big US premiere following its international debut at Cannes last month where it went down really rather well. All of the stars of the film made it onto the red carpet, including Mark Rylance who plays the title character, and the movie’s director, the legendary Steven Spielberg.
The BFG is the exciting tale of a young London girl and the mysterious Giant who introduces her to the wonders and perils of Giant Country. Based on the beloved novel by Roald Dahl, “The BFG” (Big Friendly Giant) was published in 1982 and has been enchanting readers of all ages ever since. Dahl’s books, which also include “Charlie and the Chocolate Factory,” “James and the Giant Peach,” “Matilda” and “Fantastic Mr. Fox,” are currently available in 58 languages and have sold over 200 million copies worldwide.
The BFG opens in the UK on July 22nd, 2016. Check out some video clips from last night’s premiere. Check out our review of the film at the end of the link above.
