The British Secret Service’s deadliest weapon is back on the case for the UK Premiere of JOHNNY ENGLISH REBORN.

On the 2 October, London’s prestigious Leicester Square will play host to the Hollywood stars
of this hilarious home-grown comedy.

Rowan Atkinson (Johnny English, Mr. Bean’s Holiday) returns to the role of the improbable secret agent who doesn’t know fear or danger in the comedy/spy thriller JOHNNY ENGLISH REBORN. In his latest adventure, the most unlikely intelligence officer in Her Majesty’s Secret Service must stop a group of international assassins before they eliminate a world leader and cause global chaos.

In the years since MI7’s top spy vanished off the grid, he has been honing his unique skills in a remote region of Asia. But when his agency superiors learn of an attempt against the Chinese premier’s life, they must hunt down the highly unorthodox agent. Now that the world needs him once again, Johnny English is back in action.

Starring alongside Atkinson in JOHNNY ENGLISH REBORN are Gillian Anderson (The X-Files, Bleak House) as MI7’s director, Pamela Thornton (aka Pegasus); Dominic West (The Wire, John Carter) as Special Agent Simon Ambrose (aka Agent One); Rosamund Pike (Barney’s Version, Pride & Prejudice) as MI7’s behavioural psychologist and object of English’s affection, Kate Sumner; Daniel Kaluuya (Skins, Psychoville) as the greenest agent on the force, Tucker; and Richard Schiff as ex-CIA agent Fisher.

Directed by Oliver Parker (Dorian Gray, St. Trinian’s) and written by Hamish McColl (Mr. Bean’s Holiday), from a story by William Davies (How to Train Your Dragon, Johnny English), JOHNNY ENGLISH REBORN is produced by Working Title’s Tim Bevan and Eric Fellner (Mr. Bean’s Holiday, Johnny English), as well as Chris Clark (The Guard, Johnny English).
