Nan gets an origins story and it’s probably darker than Batman’s: check out the trailer

8th March 2022 by Sarah

Hopefully choc-full of profanity (prof-nan-ity?), our favourite / least favourite little old lady is back, and this time she’s heading for the big screen. Lock up your grandads! And your drugs!

This is an origin story that mixes Nan’s present with her past where we finally find out what’s made her the cantankerous old b*****d she is today. EAT YOUR HEART OUT, DARK KNIGHT.

Here’s the synopsis:

Catherine Tate’s iconic character Nan hits the big screen as she goes on a wild road trip from London to Ireland with her grandson Jamie (Mathew Horne) to make amends with her estranged sister Nell (Katherine Parkinson). Militant vegan arsonists, raucous rugby teams, all night raves and crazed cops on motorbikes all make for a proper day out. 

Watch the trailer below and check out new stills from her “gran” day out here.

The Nan Movie is released nationwide on 18 March 2022. It stars Catherine Tate, Mathew Horne, Katherine Parkinson, Parker Sawyers, Tom Vaughan-Lawlor, Jack Doolan and Niky Wardley and is directed by Josie Rourke. Catherine Tate co-wrote with Brett Goldstein.
