The Christophers
Mon, May 21, 7PM
2025 | Dark Comedy | Directed by Steven Soderbergh, Starring Ian McKellen & Michaela Coel| 1h 40m | R
A mainstay of the London art scene since his starry breakout in the creative explosion of the 1960’s, Julian Sklar (Ian McKellen) has drifted into a cluttered, self-imposed seclusion. His two estranged children (James Corden, Jessica Gunning) enlist Lori (Michaela Coel), a young painter and sometime-forger, to pose as a prospective assistant and gain access to a fabled series of unfinished canvases Julian has buried deep in his home studio, in a deceptive bid to secure an inheritance for themselves.
“What works best about The Christophers is embedded in the performances and characters played by McKellen and Coel, coming at each other with entirely different temperatures.”
– Brian Tallerico, RogerEbert.com
“It’s another exhilarating late career opportunity for McKellen to really bare teeth, following on from The Good Liar and The Critic, but this time he has a script that’s actually able to match him.” – Benjamin Lee, Guardian
