Les
Misérables is the
motion-picture adaptation of the beloved global stage sensation seen by more
than 60 million people in 42 countries and in 21 languages around the globe and
still breaking box-office records everywhere in its 27th year. Helmed by The
King’s Speech’s Academy Award®-winning director, Tom Hooper, the Working Title/Cameron Mackintosh production stars Hugh Jackman, Oscar® winner Russell Crowe, Anne Hathaway, Amanda Seyfried, Eddie Redmayne, Aaron Tveit,
Samantha Barks, with Helena Bonham Carter and Sacha Baron Cohen.
Set
against the backdrop of 19th-century France, Les Misérables tells an
enthralling story of broken dreams and unrequited love, passion, sacrifice and
redemption—a timeless testament to the survival of the human spirit. Jackman
plays ex-prisoner Jean Valjean,
hunted for decades by the ruthless policeman Javert (Crowe) after he breaks parole. When Valjean agrees to care
for factory worker Fantine’s
(Hathaway) young daughter, Cosette,
their lives change forever.
