Universal Pictures and Cameron Mackintosh have announced the exciting news that the 2012 film adaptation of the musical will be showing in cinemas next month!

Based on the 1862 novel and stage musical, the Academy Award-winning movie, directed by Tom Hooper and produced by Cameron Mackintosh and Eric Fellner, was first released on December 25, 2012. The cast was no short of star power, with Hugh Jackman, Russell Crowe, Anne Hathaway, Amanda Seyfried, Eddie Redmayne, Samantha Barks, Aaron Tveit, Daniel Huttlestone, Helena Bonham Carter, and Sacha Baron Cohen starring in the film.

Les Miserables received eight Academy Award nominations, including 'Best Picture,' and won 'Best Supporting Actress' for Anne Hathaway, 'Best Sound Mixing,' and 'Best Makeup and Hairstyling.' In total, this epic film received 158 nominations and won 53 awards, including Golden Globes, British Academy Film Awards, and Critics' Choice Movie Awards.

Making an astonishing $442 million worldwide upon its first initial release, this theatrical masterpiece will be exclusively in Dolby Cinema at AMC Theatres for one week only, beginning February 23, 2024.


WHAT IS LES MISERABLES ABOUT?

Two years after the Revolution of 1830, France is on the brink of violence once again. Dismayed that one king has been replaced by another, a group of rebels are plotting to overthrow the monarchy and lay claim to the throne for the common people.

Against this backdrop of simmering rebellion, we follow the story of Jean Valjean, an escaped convict who manages to build a new life for himself and his adopted daughter Cosette. Yet his new found happiness cannot last for long, because the unrelenting police inspector Javert, who has been hunting Valjean for two decades, is close on his tail. As Valjean's past finally catches up with him, all of the characters are swept up in the chaos that breaks out on Paris 'streets, in an epic story of thwarted love, forgiveness and the enduring strength of the human spirit.
