Matt Lewis Roles/Events We’re Looking Forward To in 2016

Happy New Year everyone! As always, we are excited for the new year and will keep you up to date on all the latest in Matt’s acting career.

Megan predicts this will be a big year for the Yorkshire actor who has already proven to us that he’s more than Neville Longbottom (although we still love Neville dearly.) 2015 saw Matthew gain three new roles which will finally be released this year. Four if you count a voiceover for a possible animated show. Last year also included him breaking the internet with a certain photoshoot that has furthered his status as a “hottie.” (But try not to embarrass him by talking about his looks, though it may be hard *wink*)

We already have a myriad of things to look forward to this year so let’s take a look.

Matt Lewis
 

1. Ripper Street Series 4
Matt will be starring as PC Drummond in Ripper Street‘s 4th series. The series will be available exclusively for Amazon Prime Members in the UK from 15th January 2016.

2. A Celebration of Harry Potter
Matthew is one of the guests for the third annual Celebration of Harry Potter at Universal Orlando. The weekend will include question and answer sessions, autographs and a night event in The Wizarding World of Harry Potter. We will hopefully be there to cover the event. Tickets and vacation packages can be purchased at Universals’ website.

3. Me Before You Release
Matt Lewis’ newest film, Me Before You, will be released on March 4th in the United States (and we assume the UK as well.) Matt stars as Patrick alongside Emilia Clarke (Lou) and Sam Claflin (Will). No word yet on when/where a world premiere will be. Hopefully we will have a trailer soon. Stay tuned!

Update: The film has been pushed back to its original release date of June 3rd

4. Happy Valley Series 2
Matthew will also be appearing in Happy Valley‘s second series playing the character of Sean. A release date has not been announced.

5. A New Role?
It’s been a while since we’ve had some casting news. Hopefully an exciting project is approaching. If you could choose any role for Matt, what would it be?

What are you looking forward to seeing Matt Lewis in this year?
