Russell Brand in Australia for Arthur

Russell Brand in Australia for Arthur

Russell Brand ("Get Him to The Greek") stars as Arthur Bach, a man 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 that will ensure his lavish lifestyle or an uncertain future with the one thing money can't buy-Naomi (Greta Gerwig), the only woman he has ever loved. With Naomi's inspiration and some unconventional help from Hobson, Arthur will take the most expensive risk of his life and finally learn what it means to become a man, in this re-imagining of the 1981 classic. The film is directed by Jason Winer, a 2010 Directors Guild Award recipient for the hit ABC comedy "Modern Family." Arthur" also stars Jennifer Garner as Susan, Arthur's appointed bride and keeper of the family fortune, and Nick Nolte as his imposing future father-in-law, Burt. "Arthur" was filmed on location in Manhattan and in other areas of New York City. More tour details to be announced in the coming weeks.
