The Sweet Shop Movie Trailer
MWS media have finally released a trailer for The Sweet Shop a movie that Matthew Lewis was filming back in 2010. Matt plays an unnamed reporter in the film trying to get the dirt on rock star Jarvis, played by the late actor Seb Hurtado, when he returns to his home town. If you want to catch up you can read all the past news on The Sweet Shop here.
The film follows the story of a rock star (Seb Hurtado) that returns to the village where he grew up when his estranged Mother dies. He finds many of his childhood friends – including local Sweet Shop owner Katie Powell (Gemma Atkinson) – have never left.
With beautiful songs and touching characters, The Sweet Shop is a Romantic Drama with a twist.
It is still unknown if and when the film will be released, but I think the trailer is a good sign. The film was put on hold indefinitely when the star of the film tragically committed suicide.

EXCLUSIVE Video and Photo: Matthew Switching on Ilkley Lights
Today I can post a brand new, high resolution, photo of Matthew while he was switching on the Ilkley Lights, view that in the gallery. We also have an amazing video from the event which shows Santa introducing Matthew, then Matthew making a speech and finally turning on the lights! There is also a short interview at the end, where Matt talks about The Syndicate and an unnamed film, which we can assume is Wasteland.
Thanks very much to Mark, who was invited by the organizers to film and photograph the event, for sharing his footage with us!
