Californian comedian Will Ferrell has been chosen for a role he can perfectly fit in the new Netflix film. With Rachel McAdams, the combination between comedy, great performances and real Eurovision contestants from the past made this project a success. Check out the video below!
Everyone loves Will, and despite if the film is good or not, Ferrell gives a special touch. During his college years in University of Southern California he was always doing pranks, and he even got voted like the "most likeable personality". During the Soccer World Cup he even got thousands of American fans laughing and singing in the fan zone.
The movie starts in Húsavík, a fisherman town in Iceland, with Will Ferrell, his dad, played by Pierce Brosnan and his childhood friend Rachel McAdams. The whole mix between a conservative town in the middle of nowhere and the dream of a boy who wants to win the Eurovision singing contest is already funny.
Several celebrities appear on the film like singer Demi Lovato and several Eurovision winners like Jamala, Conchita Wurst, Jessy Matador and Loreen.
In conclusion, a simple but funny film with the charm of Will, who, despite his years (53 years old) keeps making us laugh and is a genius writer.
