Since I know you all like cheerful musicals here's a nice piece of info: Gemma Arterton (the velvety voiced princess Tamina from PRINCE OF PERSIA and CLASH OF THE TITANS) and pop star Kylie Minogue are set to star in new movie musical WALKING ON SUNSHINE. Using the nostalgia for the 80's music, which has surrounded us all since we're being bombarded by truly horrid music and pop stars of the present decade, the film, which will have tones of 80's catchy tunes, will take place in present-day Spain in a beautiful coastal village. Amanda is getting married to the gorgeous Raf and has invited her sister, Taylor, to the wedding. Unbeknownst to Amanda, however, Raf is Taylor's ex-holiday flame and the love of her life.
superhuman, he struggles to live within the confines of his own reality and time. He begins to not only see the future, but invent it. The series also stars gorgeous Laura Haddock who plays the celebrated beauty with obscure motives, Lucrezia Donati, dashing Elliot Cowan who plays the shrewd de factor ruler of Florence, Lorenzo Medici, Lara Pulver who plays his wife Clarice Orsini and brilliant Blake Ritson (he was amazing as the king in “World Without End”) as Pope Sixtus’ ruthless bastard son, Count Riari!
