Description
John Bradley spoke to HeyUGuys at the Merry Christmas Aubrey Flint UK Premiere at Picturehouse Central, London, and the Game of Thrones star opened up about the grief at the heart of his title role. Bradley explains why Aubrey only thinks he hates Christmas, what it was like sharing intimate two-handers with Richard E. Grant, why he jumped into the deep end with his first stage work, and which iconic British role he’d love to be offered next.
Interviews for Merry Christmas Aubrey Flint at the UK Premiere at Picturehouse Central, starring John Bradley, Celia Imrie, Richard E. Grant, Adjoa Andoh, Kiell Smith-Bynoe, Sophia Di Martino, Jim Broadbent and Karl Pilkington, written by Chris Boyle-McQuarry and directed by Jack Spring.
Colin Hart and Abigail Shii ask the questions.
Plot: Aubrey Flint is a man forced to complete community service at a struggling retirement home with an uncertain future. With the home threatened by an unscrupulous property developer, Aubrey is drawn into an unlikely fight to save it, rallying the community by staging a gloriously chaotic production of A Christmas Carol. Along the way, his reluctant stint becomes something far more meaningful, and he rediscovers a little Christmas magic of his own.
Merry Christmas Aubrey Flint will be released in UK cinemas on 6th November 2026.
