I so hope we’ll get to see this in Denmark!
I hope there will be a DVD release very soon. My favourite actors in one movie xx
In cinemas Spring 2027.
Total respect. Why are UK actors and UK productions heads and shoulders above North America. The ease and natural delivery is amazing. Having visited from Canada, seen Hamlet at the old Vic, lord of the rings in Drury lane I can only think it’s the theatre. That’s the real difference it’s such a stark comparison.
You are a legend you are a classic, handsome, debonair, suave…I hope you live to be 150.. cuz I am half that age and I hope to make it another 10 or 15 years. Thank you for you.
Can’t wait to see the film! Loved you both onstage in Windsor. Hope this is a huge success xx
Loved the play in London. I know this will be wonderful as my 2 favourite actors are In it.
Seen it at the BFI LFF and loved every minute!!!
Loved the play in London.
Just the two of you were brilliant.
Dear Sir Ian…firstly, I adore you and your bounty of fine work…not to mention a joie de vive many would only imagine for themselves, myself included ashamedly! Thank you for your generosity of heart, soul, and spirit…And thank you for carrying such a delightful passion for the stage and screen! What a gift you’ve given us for generations to come! And lastly, I can’t wait to see this film!!! To many more that delight you as much as the rest of us!!!
Love you both; please keep us all posted. 😍
Really looking forward to seeing this, loved you both in the stage production.
I am also a Sagittarius, November 28th, and admire your relationship with Judi Dench, your senses of humor, comedy and ability to laugh at your own folly. I appreciate your unaffected humor and visions of life. When I lived and visited Cambridge I had the pleasure of knowing and spending times with Harry Porter, a dear friend, of Foot Lights fame. I was his guest and stayed with him in his Selwyn CollegeI digs. I guess you might have known him. It is always a pleasure seeing you whenever the opportunity presents itself. Craig Scott
I absolutely loved Roger Allam in Endeavor–so perfect in that role. I look forward to seeing him in a different kind of role, especially with Ian McKellen, who is such an icon. How lucky we are to have such wonderful entertainment.
I love you both and can’t wait to see this!
I am looking forward to seeing your play. Let’s hope it comes to Vue Cinema in Norwich City next year also hopefully It’s not just 1 hour 50 minutes, let’s hope and pray that it will be on for 2 hours 50 minutes.
Thanks. It’s a movie and should come to a cinema near you next spring.
Where and when can I see the film?
In cinemas Spring 2027
Can’t wait to see you both, Frank and Percy!
I can’t wait. Two great actors. Sir Ian big hug warm wishes. Thank you 😊
I went to see a production of ‘Frank and Percy’ in Vienna at an English Theatre in October ’26. Brilliant, witty, touching with a touch of sadness at times. Well worth going to see!
I love all your films and this one looks very good sir. An Iam so sorry for the passing of sir patrick stewart was a great man I had the privilege of meeting him in 2010.thank you for also a fantastic fun magneto was my All time favorite villain in marvel cinema.
Lovely, I would love to act, especially any role that has to do with same sex (female)
Thank you for sharing.
We saw the ‘Frank & Percy’ play at The Theatre Royal in Bath. We loved seeing you both ‘live’, for the first time. What a treat that matinee performance really was!
We shall both be looking forward to seeing the film version, when it’s released in Spring 2027.
I saw this on stage in Windsor and it was absolutely fantastic. Can’t wait to see it in cinemas. Both actors were amazing.
