A new drama with robert starring aside rupert grint of harry potter fame. they play two best friends out for the affection of one girl. the film sounds dark too because it involves nudity, drinking, and drugs, among others.
the movie's set to be released in the uk and seeing as i'm from the us, idk if i'll actually get a chance to watch it.
and by the looks of it, it sounds like an indie film.

i really only found out about it because i'm a fan of rupert but i'm interested in seeing robert's part in it as well.

Well, it looks like this movie finally has a UK distributor and will be released over here in the coming year. Hopefully, other countries will follow suit. I think it's already been shown at a few film festivals and such like, and the reviews have been very positive so far. From all I've heard about the premise of the movie and the reactions of those who've seen it, it does sound really good (I'm a fan of Rupert AND Robbie so I'm pretty excited).

There's a distribution campaign going on to get this movie released on a wider scale. Here's a link to the online petition: www.cherrybombpetition.org/wordpress/the-petitions/

And the official website where you can watch the trailer and get a few details about the film: www.cherrybombmovie.net/

Here's some pics that have been released:















I also found a couple pics of Rupert, Robbie and their co-star Kimberly Nixon at the Berlinale Festival (where the movie premiered last year):

Nice photos! OMG! Robbie is taller than Rupert! I thought HE was pretty tall!

Amazing how a little change in makeup can totally make a different character, huh?

LOL, I know! According to his imdb page, Rupes is 5'10''. If that's true then Robbie must be...gosh...about 6'2'' judging by these pictures! (I never had him down as being that tall, but there you go..)

Oh, but there are lines about him (King Louis) being tall in YB. Look for them. Not that it means that much, but they did make mention of him "going to be taller than Father", and such.

Sue, you are so perceptive! I never noticed Robbie's tallness on YB. But, yeah, he is tall in those pictures. Robbie looks just like King Louis in the photo where they're reclining against the sofa. Other than that, he's really grown up. Thanks for the update. Robbie's had so little posted on the web about him. And a lot of his older stuff has vanished.

I have an update! According to robert-sheehan.com/ Cherrybomb will be released in the UK on April 9.

And apparently distribution deals have been made in Germany, Australia, the Czech Republic and the Middle East. I couldn't find details on the release dates - I'm not sure if they've been set yet - but it seems that things are moving in the right direction!

The UK and Ireland date was pushed back a while ago - it's getting released on (I think) the 23rd of April instead. I can't wait to watch it!

And I found some new stuff on youtube today! They made a new theatrical trailer:



and they released a bit of an interview with Rupert and Robbie:



I had to watch that one twice because the first time I was distracted a lot by Robbie's gloves.
