Alan Carr is the host of Sky One’s new show ‘There’s Something About Movies’.
The 42-year-old comedian is set to anchor the new celebrity panel show, and the British funnyman is "super excited" to invite some of the UK’s favourite actors and comics to test their film trivia and blockbuster knowledge on-screen.
He said: "Super excited to be hosting ‘There’s Something About Movies’ – with the unique mix of famous comedy faces and actual movie stars on one panel show together it’s going to be must see TV.
"Grab your popcorn as we test the stars on their cinema knowledge, get all the Hollywood gossip behind the scenes and with some acting master classes I see if I’ve got what it takes to make it in tinsel town (spoiler alert – I haven’t). It’s going to be so much fun."
The Sky original production will be filmed in front of a live studio audience and promises laughs in abundance with weekly guest stars, who will battle it out to prove they know the most about the industry that made them.
Phil Edgar-Jones, head of entertainment at Sky, added: "We are somewhere over the rainbow with excitement to have Alan Carr taking a leading role in ‘There’s Something About Movies’.
"It feels like a show only Sky could make and we aim to do for films what ‘A League of Their Own’ has done for sport … make it funny."
Sky One’s ‘A League of Their Own’ is launching on May 2nd.
