All-Star Lineup For “Horrid Harry” Flick
An all-star cast including Anjelica Huston, Richard E. Grant and Parminder Nagra has been lined up to feature in Vertigo Film and Novel Entertainment’s 3D kids live action project “Horrid Henry: The Movie,” which is based on the hugely successful boy-skewed book series from Francesca Simon. In the movie Henry, who is the Lord High Majesty of the Purple Hand Gang, wages his ever-constant battle against the tyranny of adults, a number of whom seem to be out to get him. Anjelica Huston will play Henry’s terrifying teacher Miss Battle-Axe, alongside, Rebecca Front as Henry’s headmistress Ms Oddbod, Richard E Grant as a rival headmaster and Parminder Nagra as Miss Lovely. Brit cult comic Noel Fielding will make an appearance as Killer Boy Rats’ frontman Ed Banger, joining Jo Brand as the Demon Dinner Lady, Matthew Horne as Henry’s Dad and Prunella Scales as Great Aunt Greta. The movie will introduce new young actors Scarlett Stitt as Moody Margaret, Ross Marron as Perfect Peter and Theo Stevenson as the eponymous Horrid Henry. Nick Moore will direct the project, which is produced by Vertigo’s Rupert Preston and Lucinda Whiteley.
