We hit the London premiere of new Take That movie, Greatest Days!
The stars of Greatest Days were joined in London by the band who provide the soundtrack and inspiration behind the feel good British film of the summer - Take That, for the premiere of the new movie. We sent Siân Welby to get all the gossip from the red carpet.
Greatest Days is an adaptation of the jukebox musical, originally called The Band, which opened in 2017.
The film, directed by Coky Giedroyc, stars comedian Aisling Bea, Jayde Adams, Alice Lowe and Amaka Okafor – with Take That members Gary Barlow, Mark Owen and Howard Donald serving as executive producers.
Speaking at the world premiere of Greatest Days in London on Thursday, Donald said: “It’s obviously amazing. Music in general – not just Take That’s music – touches people’s hearts, creates friendships, gets people through difficult times, brings people together. The power of music is so, so powerful.”
The feel-good film, featuring many of Take That’s hit songs, follows five best friends who have the night of their lives seeing their favourite boy band in concert.
Twenty-five years later they are reunited and travel to Greece, to see an epic show by the childhood heroes and rekindle their friendships.
Greatest Days arrives in UK cinemas on June 16.
