Film4Summer’s full line-up at Somerset House has finally been announced, including the world premiere of About Time and UK premieres of The Way Way Back and Prince Avalanche

Opening in Somerset House’s magnificent 18th century courtyard on a giant 17 x 8 metre screen with full surround sound, Film4Summer Screen one of London’s best-loved open-air cinemas, returns with an extended 14-night programme of cinematic classics, comedy, romance, musicals and thrillers. Accompanied by early evening DJ sessions, special live introductions to selected films, and food and drink offerings, you will be hard-pressed to find a better outdoor film highlight than Film4Summer Screen this August.

This year, in partnership with American Express, Film4 Summer Screen is especially proud to present the world premiere of Richard Curtis’ magical new comedy About Time, and the UK premieres of The Way Back (from Oscar-winning writers of The Descendents) and Prince Avalanche, starring Paul Rudd and Emile Hirsch.

Other deliciously thrilling options to the line-up include What Ever Happened to Baby Jane?, The Untouchables, Kes, The Red Shoes, Throne of Blood, and feel-goods like Guys and Dolls, Raising Arizona, Butch Cassidy and The Sundance Kid, and Crazy Stupid Love.

Those seeking more fearsome fun can expect double- and triple-bills including Mean Girls, Carrie, The Loved Ones, Gremlins 2:The New Batch, Badlands, and Predator.
