Vous avez peut-être vu la vidéo hilarante que Elton John a publiée ces jours-ci dans laquelle il n'arrive plus à ouvrir une porte chez lui, que ce soit celle de son living, frigo et même le four dans sa cuisine, sans entendre une chanson de Noël en sortir. Elle lui a d'ailleurs valu une remarque sur la propreté de la porte intérieure de son four, alors que l'artiste est réputé pour ne pas supporter la moindre saleté ni le désordre.Mais bref, cela n'a rien d'étonnant car le mois de décembre en Grande Bretagne est un mois chargé comme on n'en voit nulle part ailleurs dans le monde. Ce n'est pas pour rien que c'est là qu'est née la fête telle que nous la pratiquons aujourd'hui, le Christmas Carol de Charles Dickens en est d'ailleurs la preuve.Mais bon, il aime ça aussi, Elton John, tout comme son ami Freddie Mercury. Aah, la Noël, c'était sacré. Ces deux gars qui avaient connu une enfance compliquée à tous les niveaux, avaient du retard à rattraper quand ils sont devenus des stars riches comme Crésus. Ca y allait les cadeaux chez Cartier, Fortnum & Mason ou Tiffany, à Londres et à New York, le samedi avant la Noël. Un ami de Freddie Mercury se souvient qu'une année chez Harrods, Freddie s'était vu refuser sa carte American Express, pour cause de solde dépassé, tellement il y était allé fort en bouteilles de parfum pour ses invités. Freddie était comme ça. Sûrement le plus calme de la bande en privé, quand il était chez lui, à Manhattan, Kensington ou Montreux. Il était loin d'être le plus extravagant avec ses proches, c'était plutôt les autres qui se déchaînaient, trop heureux d'être avec LUI, la rockstar. Freddie, lui, cherchait juste le réconfort d'un noyau de gens qui l'accepte pour ce qu'il est, pas ce qu'il chante. Voilà sans doute le pourquoi de l'avalanche de cadeaux. Pareil pour Elton John. D'ailleurs, vous vous souvenez dans le film Love Actually, quand il invite Bill Nighy alias le punk Billy Mack devenu N°1 du Top40. L'auteur n'a rien inventé, Elton John est connu pour ses fêtes de Noël à la hauteur de la ferveur populaire qui saisit les Britanniques. C'est vrai qu'on y fête plus le sapin, la dinde et la cuvée spéciale que le petit Jésus dans la crèche.On raconte qu'il y invitait souvent son voisin le prince Philippe et la reine, ses voisins à Windsor, et qu'ils déclinaient poliment. Par contre qu'il y ait compté dans les années 90, un certain Robbie Williams et les Spice Girls pour l'écouter jouer au piano jusqu'à huit heures du matin, ça c'est lui qui l'a raconté. Tout cela avait lieu, évidemment, dans sa maison de campagne, loin des voisins qu'on aurait pu déranger. Imaginez Geri Halliwell en robe de mère Noël ultra courte, en train de hurler dans la cour Merry Christmas avec Robbie Williams. Freddie était, sur ce coup-là, plus discret, je vous l'ai dit, comme en atteste l'unique disque de Noël publié par Queen en 1984, et dont la carrière a été, cette année-là, éclipsée par l'immense single du Band Aid.

Is it romance? Is it tenderness? Might it be affection? Ummmmm, no, idiot, it's Love, Actually. Join the peerless podcasters Mitchell, Vonn, and Luke, when they dive head first into a puddle of love while watching Richard Curtis' beloved holiday classic, Love, Actually, starring Bill Nighy, Colin Firth, Alan Rickman, Emma Thompson, Hugh Grant, Kiera Knightly, and Liam Neeson!Get social with High & Low!Instagram @HighLowMovieShowThreads @ HighLowMovieShowJoin our Facebook Group The High & Low DungeonBuy Us a Coffee Twitter @HighLowMovieSho

At Christmas, you tell the truth... And the truth is, we're covering "Love Actually" this week in the first episode of the holiday season. This movie of intertwined character pieces is full of dated takes on dating in the early-2000s UK, but we're going to zero in on one very important cover song that ties all the stories together: Billy Mack's gloriously cynical Christmas cover of The Troggs' “Love Is All Around.” We'll unwrap several other versions of the song as well as take a listen to Bill Nighy's surprisingly extensive singing résumé!

If you ever wondered if guinea pigs would make good spies, do we have a movie for you. Danielle recaps the 2009 spy…thriller? G-Force. Which perhaps stands for Guinea Pig Force, but since there's a mole and a fly involved, maybe not? Not important. When Zach Galifianakis's elite guinea pig (and co.) task force is about to be on the figurative chopping block at the FBI, they decide to go rogue to show them how amazing they can be. Stumbling across a plot for world destruction brought to you by arms dealer-cum-appliance magnate, Bill Nighy (the British guy-hy), the guinea pigs are sure they'll impress, but when everything goes awry their program is shut down. Now on the literal chopping block, they make a run for it ending up at a local (and horrifying) pet store. Shenanigans ensue. Appliances come to life. Children try to murder guinea pigs with lacrosse sticks. Microwaves use cake for rodent bait. Animals may or may not be sentient; it's deeply unclear. And yet, we promise you, none of that will prepare you for one of the most shocking plot twists in movie history.

Horror movies, holiday slashers, and classic monster mayhem collide in this episode of This Week in Horror History, covering December 8–14 in spooky cinema. We dig into the releases, icons, and deep cuts that shaped horror long before Christmas morning ever arrived.This week's watch list includes:Christine (1983) – John Carpenter's sleek, icy adaptation of Stephen King's killer-car novel. We look at how this haunted Plymouth went from a modest box office performer to a cult favorite thanks to its mood, music, and vicious metal-on-flesh set pieces.The Wolfman (1941) – Lon Chaney Jr.'s tragic Larry Talbot helped define the sympathetic monster and rewrote the rules for werewolf lore. We talk legacy, atmosphere, and why this frosty Universal chiller still plays perfectly on a cold December night.Scream 2 (1997) – Meta slashers head to college as Sidney Prescott and Ghostface return in a sequel that should've fizzled but absolutely works. Film theory, sequel rules, and late-'90s horror energy all collide in one of the most successful slasher follow-ups ever.Maniac Cop 2 (1990) – An undead cop, wild stunts, and a grimy New York that feels like a haunted maze. We spotlight why this over-the-top sequel is a cult gem for fans of action-horror hybrids.We also roll through a birthday crawl for some horror legends: Rick Baker, Vampira, Bill Nighy, and Dee Wallace, celebrating how their work reshaped monsters, ghosts, and genre weirdos across decades.In our “Then and Now: Meta Slashers” segment, we use Scream 2 as a jumping-off point to talk about how self-aware horror evolved—from '90s snark to today's nostalgia-driven, legacy-sequel era. And for your weekly recommendation, we head back to the 1950s with Tarantula (1955), a giant-spider creature feature that channels Cold War anxieties into big, creepy fun and pairs beautifully with other atomic-age monster flicks.All that plus our sponsor Cozy Earth— 41% off with Promo Code SPOOKY ultra-comfy bedding perfect for staying warm while you binge horror history marathons in December.If you love horror podcasts, classic monster movies, '80s Stephen King adaptations, and meta slasher sequels, this week's trip through the dates will fill your holiday season watchlist and keep your nights eerie all December long.

We have star of stage and screen, acting legend and national treasure Bill Nighy joining us on the podcast this week! Fresh from creating his brand new podcast ‘ill advised by Bill Nighy' - where he is an agony uncle - we sat down with Bill for lunch. Mum even made his favourite dish - pasta puttanesca. We found out that Bill was a Mod in his youth, how he feels about the success of Love Actually, the time he scammed tourists on the streets of Paris, why he prefers to eat meals alone and how he must add as much spice as possible to every meal he eats! What a total delight to have a meal with Bill, we could have chatted for hours and hours. Bill's fabulous podcast ‘ill advised by Bill Nighy' is available to listen to everywhere now. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Though Bill Nighy's new podcast, ill-advised, is all about dishing thoughtful advice on the turmoils of others, that doesn't mean he wants to be mistaken for someone who has it all figured out.This is one of the first things he told Chioma after arriving at the London podcast studio in a suit, a Smedley sweater he designed himself, and Church's loafers. In honor of his podcast and the skillful advice he gave on British Vogue's Agony Uncle video, we asked Bill to answer listener questions and break down the secret behind his signature style, which led to the shocking revelation that he has never worn trainers in his life (well — except on one specific occasion). Despite insisting he's no advice expert, Bill still offers charming, genuinely helpful tips: how to get along with your in-laws over the holidays, a sweet way to propose to your partner, and a recommendation for a family-friendly film that adults and kids will love (hint: he stars in it!).Earlier in the show, Chloe shares details about next year's Met Gala spring 2026 exhibition theme titled “Costume Art”, which was just announced Monday morning. Chioma recaps the GQ London Men of the Year event, where she wore a chic brown Aaron Esh suit and had a fun text conversation with Cynthia Erivo about her excitement for Wicked: For Good (which she plans to see this weekend!). Plus, a fun a recap of the 16 Arlington show from earlier this week where Lily Allen made her runway debut!The Run-Through with Vogue is your go-to podcast where fashion meets culture.

The title that just won't die, go figure. This version of Lazarus stars Bill Nighy and Sam Claflin, and although it's a British production, it's helmed by one of America's most prolific authors, Harlan Coben. The premise is simple: a psychologist who can speak to the undead is morally bound to uncover the truth behind how they met their ultimate ends.If you've ever seen a ghost story before (Archive 81, The Haunting, Tru Calling, etc.) you know exactly what you're signing up for. Tune in to hear our breakdown of the pilot, our rating, and our thoughts on the directorial choices and more.Welcome to Today's Episode!

Min 4: LAZARUS (PRIME VIDEO) En Lazarus, Sam Claflin encarna a un psiquiatra brillante marcado por un trauma que vuelve a su vida cuando su padre, interpretado por Bill Nighy, reaparece misteriosamente tras haber sido dado por muerto. A partir de ese momento, nada parece tener explicación lógica: recuerdos, sueños y realidades se confunden en un thriller psicológico que mezcla el drama familiar con lo sobrenatural. Con el sello narrativo de Harlan Coben, creador de éxitos como Safe o The Stranger, la serie despliega un rompecabezas de secretos, duelos y heridas abiertas donde cada revelación es más inquietante que la anterior. Lazarus mantiene la tensión con una ambientación fría, un tono melancólico y un reparto sólido, en un relato sobre la memoria, la pérdida y los fantasmas —reales o no— que habitan en todos nosotros. CALIFICACIÓN EDC: 3,5 estrellas Min 13: EL MONSTRUO DE FLORENCIA (NETFLIX) En El monstruo de Florencia, Netflix revive uno de los casos criminales más turbios y obsesivos de la historia reciente de Italia. Entre finales de los sesenta y mediados de los ochenta, un asesino en serie conocido como Il Mostro di Firenze aterrorizó a la región toscana, matando a parejas jóvenes en parajes aislados con un patrón tan preciso como brutal. La serie reconstruye ese infierno a través de la mirada de periodistas, policías y testigos que se vieron atrapados en un laberinto de errores, sospechas y teorías que convirtieron la investigación en una pesadilla colectiva. Con una puesta en escena elegante, tono sobrio y atmósfera inquietante, El monstruo de Florencia no busca tanto resolver un crimen como explorar el miedo, la obsesión mediática y la sombra de la culpa que aún persiste en la memoria italiana. CALIFICACIÓN EDC: 3 estrellas Min 18: ENTREPRENEURS (Disney Plus) En Entrepreneurs, el dúo cómico Rober Bodegas y Alberto Casado —conocidos como Pantomima Full— dan el salto a la ficción con una sátira mordaz del mundo del emprendimiento y las nuevas profesiones. El protagonista, Gonzalo (Bodegas), hijo de un empresario hostelero, recibe una última oportunidad: montarse un negocio que no sea otro bar de afterwork. Sin ideas, se alía con Jacobo (Casado), autoproclamado “gurú entrepreneur”, y juntos fundan un coworking lleno de freelances con aspiraciones desmesuradas. La hermana de Gonzalo, Julia (Aura Garrido), debe supervisar para que el proyecto no sea otro fiasco. CALIFICACIÓN EDC: 3 estrellas Min 24: AVANCE DE "PLURIBUS", DEL CREADOR DE BREAKING BAD Te avanzamos también detalles importantes de 'Pluribus', la propuesta llamada a marcar un punto de inflexión en la carrera de Vince Gilligan: alejado del universo de Breaking Bad, que esta vez se adentra en el terreno de la ciencia-ficción con una premisa desconcertante: la persona más infeliz de la Tierra debe salvar al mundo… de la felicidad. La protagonista, juguete de una trama que promete giros e incomodidades, es interpretada por Rhea Seehorn, quien regresa a colaborar con Gilligan en un papel radicalmente distinto al que la catapultó al reconocimiento. El tráiler y los avances insinúan un mundo que cambia de forma abrupta, con humor negro, tensión y un estilo visual que se aleja del drama criminal clásico para explorar lo extraño y lo cotidiano fusionados. Min 29: BSO DE "NERO: UN ASESINO" La banda sonora de Nero, firmada por Guillaume Roussel, es uno de los grandes aciertos de esta serie francesa de Netflix. Lejos de los clichés del thriller histórico, Roussel apuesta por una música intensa y emocional que combina cuerdas y percusión con matices electrónicos. El resultado es una partitura que respira peligro, melancolía y redención, acompañando cada paso del protagonista en su huida y en su culpa.

We have a Lazarus double bill this week as both showrunner Harlan Coben and Star Bill Nighy drop by for separate (but thematically connected) chats about the new Prime Video thriller (which is embargoed, so we'll be reviewing it on Pilot+). Plus we go abseiling with Lauren Lyle in The Ridge on BBC2, head back to posh Victorian England with The Forsytes on Channel 5, and get a little ASMR from Julia Roberts in Leonard And Hungry Paul on BBC2. Elsewhere, Kay enquires as to just what it takes to make us all stop watching a show, and James issues a public apology. (Episode 359)

And so, it's time to conclude our look at the 'Omen' franchise with 'The First Omen'! (Yes, I know, it sounds like it's... look, don't overthink the title, okay? It's just a prequel.)

Soju from the Straight Chilling Podcast joins Caitlin to discuss 2003's Underworld, an underrated gem of vampire cinema. We talk about the excellent worldbuilding, the thoughtful themes, and the sexy, cool styling. We are Underworld vamps, through and through. Tangents include all things vampire: Halloween vampire movies, dealing with the boredom and isolation of eternity, a vampire FMK, vampire thirst, and the Underworld sequels. Also cryptids.

In the season seven premiere, our hosts crack open a classic literature adaptation at the request of a LAFSter with Autumn de Wilde's Emma (2020). Madison swoons over this Regency-era friends-to-lovers tale, and Chelsea wonders whether the filmmakers intended to produce such a glaringly gay story. Amidst their appreciation for this movie's humor and memorable performances from Anya Taylor-Joy, Mia Goth, and Bill Nighy, our cohosts investigate what warrants yet another adaptation of a story that's been told myriad times over.Connect With UsFollow us on Instagram @loveatfirstscreening or send an email to loveatfirstscreening@gmail.comProduction Hosts: Chelsea Ciccone and Madison HillMusic: Good StephArtwork: Chelsea CicconeSocial Media: Marissa CicconeAbout the ShowAn examination of classic tropes and iconic characters pits connoisseur against cynic—one romantic comedy at a time.

Grab your cricket bat, raid the fridge for a cold one, and head to the Winchester, because this week, the Born to Watch crew are diving deep into one of the smartest and most beloved horror-comedies of all time with their Shaun of the Dead (2004) review.With G-Man MIA (probably off playing Tekken in the shed), Matt and Sir Dimmy hold the fort to break down Edgar Wright's 2004 cult classic that reanimated the zombie genre and redefined the zombie flick with a pint of bitter and a dash of British wit.In this week's episode, the lads explore how Shaun of the Dead walks the tightrope between gore and giggles, creating a film that works just as well as a slacker comedy as it does a horror satire. Damo admits to confusing it with The World's End (don't worry, he's new here), while Matt reveals he's seen the film nearly 20 times and could watch it on loop, especially with a packet of pork crackle and a Pepsi Max.From the iconic walk to the shop (twice), to the Queen-backed zombie beatdown in the Winchester, the boys dissect every major scene with the kind of reverence usually reserved for Tarantino or Scorsese. They also dig into Simon Pegg's breakout role as the titular Shaun, Nick Frost's glorious (and infuriating) turn as Ed, and the supporting cast of Britcom legends including Lucy Davis, Dylan Moran, and the ever-reliable Bill Nighy.They ask all the important questions:Is Shaun actually a zombie at the start of the film, who awakens into humanity?Could a pub really be the best place to ride out the apocalypse?And how the hell did Shaun survive that crowd of flesh-eaters outside the Winchester?Damo goes full philosopher, questioning the human condition in the age of smartphones (spoiler: we're all zombies), while Matt wonders why anyone would throw priceless vinyl at the undead.But it's not all jokes and Queen sing-alongs, the episode also touches on the emotional beats of the film, like Shaun's relationship with his mum and stepdad, the heartbreak of watching loved ones turn, and the surprisingly poignant ending that still manages to sneak in one last gag.The boys also fire off rapid takes in “The Good, The Bad and The Ugly,” with highlights like:The perfect pacing and editing of the dual morning walk sequencesThe underappreciated brilliance of the bizarro “mirror crew” sceneAnd Ed's ability to be the most annoying – yet somehow still likeable – flatmate in cinema historyThrow in some choice reviews from critics (both good and hilariously bad), box office trivia, and the revelation that director Edgar Wright used just $4 million to craft a film that grossed over $30 million and launched a thousand pub-themed Halloween costumes, and you've got yourself one hell of a breakdown.Oh, and yes, the team briefly wonders why cricket bats are now over $1,000, a real horror show.So whether you're a diehard fan of the Cornetto Trilogy or new to the undead scene, this episode is a must-listen.Listen now on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts!Join the conversation:Is Shaun of the Dead the best zombie comedy ever made?Would you ride out the apocalypse in a pub? And what's the best record to throw at a zombie?#BornToWatch #ShaunoftheDead #EdgarWright #SimonPegg #ZombieComedy #BritishHumour #HorrorComedy #NickFrost #CornettoTrilogy #MoviePodcast

Commissioner Dreyfus had for years wanted to see his infuriating underling Inspector Jacques Clouseau dead and buried and for a while, with the death of Peter Sellers in 1980, it seemed like the shambolic Sûreté shamus had indeed been laid to rest...... Until somebody had the bright idea of filming two new movies back-to-back trading on the Clouseau character - after all, the Pink Panther film series had been a massively successful franchise, why spoil it all just because the main actor was dead?First was Trail Of The Pink Panther which featured out-takes and deleted scenes from previous films, which was bad enough. Then Blake Edwards ran out of old footage so hit upon the idea of introducing a brand new character for the second feature, Curse Of The Pink Panther. This bumbling new detective, Clifton Sleigh, would be tasked with finding the missing Inspector Clouseau, and in the course of which would be just as hapless and hilarious and hopefully be seen as the heir to Sellers. In fact, the idea was to make six more films with Sleigh! I know right? It didn't quite work out. Jon Auty from Behind The Stunts joins Tyler to pick over the bones of this thoroughly-flogged dead horse and while acknowledging one or two genuine titters and some pretty impressive stunt work there's little else of any merit. Ted Wass, as Sgt Clifton Sleigh, tries to make the most of what he's given to work with (including an inflatable woman) and there's some fun to be had spotting familiar faces including Michael Elphick, Bill Nighy and - appearing as Turk Thrust II - Roger Moore. But the fact remains that it's a lame film that should never have been made and really should have been the final nail in that particular coffin. Yet amazingly it wasn't! (That's a story for another time)Jon talks about the various stunt coordinators involved with the film including Joe Dunne and Roy Alon and Behind The Stunts can be found here: https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/behind-the-stunts/id1547078357

With Pedro Pascal in both The Last of Us & Fantastic 4 and Lupita Nyong'o in Christopher Nolan's upcoming The Odyssey, John & Roxy reunite to give their The Wild Robot Reaction, Recap, Commentary, Analysis, & Spoiler Review!! Join Roxy Striar & John Humphrey as they embark on an epic island adventure with DreamWorks Animation's 2024 family favorite, The Wild Robot. When an advanced android named Roz (voiced by Lupita Nyong'o, Oscar-winner for 12 Years a Slave and Black Panther) washes ashore, she must learn to survive in the wilderness—befriending a playful fox named Fink (Pedro Pascal, The Last of Us, The Mandalorian) and adopting an orphaned gosling, Brightbill (Kit Connor, Heartstopper, Slumber Party), as her own. Alongside Roz's newfound family are Pinktail the possum mom (Catherine O'Hara, Home Alone, Schitt's Creek), Longneck the wise elder goose (Bill Nighy, Love Actually, Pirates of the Caribbean), and Thunderbolt the peregrine falcon (Ving Rhames, Mission: Impossible series, Pulp Fiction)—each teaching Roz vital lessons. But when the ruthless retrieval robot Vontra (Stephanie Hsu, Everything Everywhere All at Once, The Marvels) arrives to capture Roz, and the fearsome bear Thorn (Mark Hamill, Star Wars, Batman: The Animated Series) stalks the island, Roz must rely on her ingenuity and the loyalty of her animal friends—like neurotic beaver Paddler (Matt Berry, What We Do in the Shadows, The IT Crowd)—to protect Brightbill and call the island home. Roxy & John break down every standout moment: Roz's first dawn-lit trek through the forest, the heartwarming microbot experiment that almost goes awry, the breathtaking flight-training sequences, and the tense factory showdown with Vontra. Dive into our in-depth reaction and review as we explore how The Wild Robot blends action, emotion, and stunning animation into a touching tale of friendship and belonging!

He's back. He's brooding. He's possibly plagiarising. And he's forgotten his sandwiches.This Liam Neeson Special features five of our most beloved (and ridiculous) parody interviews from the past three years — plus two raunchy sketches involving a sultry American MILF named Vagella Rick-Rocks, who may or may not be trying to seduce Liam in increasingly absurd scenarios.Along the way, Liam overshares about romance, attempts to rebrand himself as a serious creative artist, and pitches original ideas such as:A romantic comedy glove-based ensemble film (Glove Actually)A mob drama about therapy (The Carusos)A masked vigilante with Wilfred the butler and Boy Wonder, Robbie. (That Man)While giving us first-hand insight into his bizarre world of:Showing old ladies his 'Hamlet'African prostitutesLaughing at elephantsPeeing in men's handsHis short-lived career as SantaDoggingEach sketch is followed by commentary from Jorma and Ray, who try (and mostly fail) to make sense of Liam's creative process, real-life zoo visits and late night video games with celebrity friends like Carol Vorderman, Bill Nighy and Gerry Adams - and suspiciously familiar plotlines.It's part tribute, part chaos, part forgotten sandwiches – with extra lashings of filth.

Send us a textListen To Alix's Latest EP "Bug"When songwriters reveal what shaped them, magic happens. Alix Page peels back the curtain on her artistic development in this intimate conversation about the films, music, and stories that built her creative foundation.From her early days leading worship at a Christian middle school to finding her voice at Orange County School of Arts, Alix shares how releasing her first single "Stripes" in 2020 marked the beginning of her musical journey. What truly transformed her approach was discovering Phoebe Bridgers' "Stranger in the Alps" – an album that showed her a new path forward. "I hadn't heard anything like that until then," Alix reveals, explaining how Bridgers' stripped-back authenticity gave her permission to simply show up and be herself.The conversation weaves through unexpected connections – like collaborating with Mark McKenna from "Sing Street" after years of using John Carney's film as pre-tour inspiration, or bumping into Bill Nighy the day after watching him in "Emma." These serendipitous moments mirror Alix's songwriting approach: finding beauty in life's small, meaningful intersections.What emerges is a portrait of an artist whose work blends the melancholic storytelling of Bridgers, the character depth of Jane Austen adaptations, and the emotional honesty of "500 Days of Summer." For fans of Alix's music or anyone fascinated by creative influence, this episode offers a window into how art inspires art across generations and mediums.Listen now to discover the cultural touchstones behind one of today's most captivating emerging songwriters – and perhaps gain insight into the influences shaping your own creative path.See Alix on TourFollow My Pop Five: @mypopfive on all platforms We'll see you next time.

Director Simon Otto is here to chat failed Christmas gifts, formative films, and finding the balance of a multithreaded storyline story and having to take into account theatrical experience versus streaming consumption. This interview contains mild spoilers for That Christmas. More about Simon Otto Simon Otto is the Director of That Christmas. He started his directing career on the Netflix animated series Dragons: Race to the Edge and Trollhunters: Tales of Arcadia. Most recently, he directed the Love, Death & Robots episode ‘The Tall Grass' and developed, executive produced and served as the Supervising Director on the successful Netflix series, A Tale Dark & Grimm. Prior to turning to directing, he spent over 20 years working at DreamWorks Animation, most notably as the Head of Character Animation on the Oscar-nominated How to Train Your Dragon trilogy. In that role, Simon oversaw the character animation and was instrumental in designing and developing the look of the characters, their personalities, and the overall style of the animation, while also working in the story department as a story artist. He first joined DreamWorks in 1997 to work on the groundbreaking The Prince of Egypt and worked as a Supervising Animator both in hand-drawn and CG animation on many of the studio's features including, Spirit: Stallion of the Cimarron and the Aardman co-production Flushed Away. Born and raised in Switzerland, Simon studied animation at the prestigious Les Gobelins Animation School in Paris, France. More about That Christmas Based on the charming trilogy of children's books by beloved multi award-winning writer/director Richard Curtis (FOUR WEDDINGS AND A FUNERAL, NOTTING HILL, LOVE ACTUALLY, YESTERDAY), THAT CHRISTMAS follows a series of entwined tales about family and friends, love and loneliness, and Santa Claus making a big mistake, not to mention an enormous number of turkeys! This heartwarming comedy from Locksmith Animation marks Curtis' first foray into animation, serving as the film's writer and executive producer, and also the feature directorial debut of renowned animation veteran Simon Otto (LOVE, DEATH & ROBOTS, HOW TO TRAIN YOUR DRAGON FILMS). Nicole P. Hearon (MOANA, FROZEN) and Adam Tandy (THE THICK OF IT, DETECTORISTS) are producers.
