With a voice cast made up of some of the finest English comedian of today, including Jack Whitehall, Nick Frost, Matt Berry, and Harry Enfield, everyone’s favourite magic potion swigging, Roman bothering Gaul, Asterix, is on his way back to the big screen with Asterix: Mansions of the Gods. Based on the seventeenth book in Rene Goscinny and Albert Uderzo’s long running series of French comic books, the story sees Asterix’s village threatened with being absorbed into Roman culture when a massive estate is built beside it.
The first Asterix movie in CG animation, it skews very close to the art style of the original books, while keeping much of the humour intact. For anybody who grew up with Asterix books, myself included, this seems to promise an entertaining hit of nostalgia.
Asterix: The Mansions of the Gods hits our shores on August 19th.
