Arthur: More than a Comedy Film

It was very surprising to see a film that stars Russel Brand that is beyond the usual comedy theme that he usually offer. The film Arthur, was a remake of the 1981 film with the same title and now written directed by Steve Gordon. Aside from Brand, the movie also stars Helen Mirren, Jennifer Garner, Greta Gerwig, and Nick Nolte and it is showing in all cinemas nationwide beginning April 23.

Russell Brand stars in Warner Bros' Arthur

In Warner Bros.' new comedy “Arthur” – a fresh new look at a classic story – Russell Brand re-invents the role of loveable billionaire Arthur Bach, an irresponsible charmer who has always relied on two things to get by: his limitless fortune and the good sense of lifelong nanny Hobson (Academy Award® winner Helen Mirren) to keep him out of trouble.

Now he faces his biggest challenge—choosing between an arranged marriage to ambitious corporate exec Susan (Jennifer Garner), that will ensure his lavish lifestyle, or an uncertain future with the one thing money can’t buy, Naomi (Greta Gerwig), the woman he really loves.
