The BBC has shared the first promo image from the upcoming “Absolutely Fabulous: The Movie” starring Jennifer Saunders and Joanna Lumley in their now iconic TV comedy roles as “Edina” and “Patsy.”
From Variety:
In the movie, which is adapted from the BBC TV series, Edina and Patsy are still living the high life: shopping, drinking and clubbing their way around London’s trendiest hotspots. Blamed for a major incident at an uber-fashionable launch party, they become entangled in a media storm, and are relentlessly pursued by the paparazzi. Fleeing penniless to the playground of the super-rich, the French Riviera, they hatch a plan to make their escape permanent, and live a life of luxury forever.
We are HUGE fans of the series in my house. When I first met Michael, it was one of the first pop culture experiences he insisted on sharing with me. It took me a few episodes to find my footing, but now I’m just as big a aficionado. Can’t wait for the movie to come out sometime in 2016.
