Tonight at The Odeon, Leicester Square crowds will gather to see top celebs strutting it down the red carpet at the London film premiere of Hairspray. Starring John Travolta, Queen Latifah, Christopher Walken, Michelle Pfeiffer and Amanda Bynes, this all star cast is bound to attract a huge audience from around the world. Trailer pasted below:

The storyline is pretty unique and sounds hilarious; set in the year 1962 Tracy Turnblad has one goal to be a dancer. The problem is that Tracy is a big girl with big hair and doesn’t really fit the dancer stereotype however she is determined to succeed and ends up dancing on a local TV show. Will all her dreams come true? You’ll have to watch the film and find out.

The best part about this film is John Travolta’s role as Edna Turnblad (Tracy’s mother). I’m talking full blown makeover here – women’s clothes, wig, make-up, he really looks the part!

To be honest I’m not a huge fan of The Fantastic Four, I thought the first film was a little cheesy at times and not really for me. Anyway, the second film is due to be released soon and the London film premiere is being held a Leicester Square tomorrow evening.

The film stars Ioan Gruffudd as Mr Fantastic, Jessica Alba as The Invisible Woman, Chris Evans as The Human Torch and Michael Chiklis as The Thing. Crowd are likely to be gathering from early afternoon so it could be a great chance for you to get some celebrity snaps for the album! Trailer below:

Tonight Leicester Square will be hosting the Shrek the Third London Premier. As usual it will be a red carpet event for friends and family of the cast and the usual celebs who have nothing better to do with their Monday evening’s!

The films stars Cameron Diaz (Princess Fiona), Mike Myers (Shrek), Eddie Murphy (Donkey), Antonio Banderas (Puss in Boots) and many more top celebs but who will turn up for the premier? It would be great to see all the cast together. Below is the trailer for you to enjoy.

Spiderman 3 Film Premiere at The Odeon

The much awaited Spiderman 3 premiere will take place this evening at the Odeon in Leicester Square. Stars of the film Toby Maguire and Kirsten Dunst are expected to be there alongside many other big celebrity names. They attended the Tokyo premiere last week and were greeted by hundreds of screaming fans as they walked down the red carpet. The US will be holding theirs on the 30th April in New York which is unusual because they normally host premieres before the UK.

Spiderman 3 is rumoured to be the final chapter of the Spiderman series and introduces two new villains known as Sandman and Venom. I have to admit I am quite a Spiderman fan and am definitely looking forward to seeing the film. Check out the trailer above to see what adventures we’re in for this time.
