The Hollywood Reporter says Ryan Reynolds will headline the first-ever Just for Laughs London, a four-day comedy festival.
Graham Norton will also be the headlining act. Reynolds will discuss his career with Deadpool co-star Rob Delaney at Maximum Effort, while Norton will host a curated variety event.
Other festival activities include those of Katherine Ryan and her companions, Reggie Watts, Aisling Bea, The Horne Section, Shaparak Khorsandi, and Jessica Fostekew. Adam Buxton will present his music video show Bug, comic Craig Robinson will attend with his band the Nasty Delicious, and there will be live podcast recordings and panel discussions.
“Every year, without question, the British contingent of comedians at JFL Montreal are one of the highlights of our event,” Just for Laughs president Bruce Hills said via Variety.
“Now is the ideal time to bring our festival to shine an international spotlight on the fantastic UK scene,” Hills said.
Just for Laughs started in Canada in 1983, and next year, it will celebrate its 40th anniversary with Comic Relief in London.
The O2 will host Just for Laughs London from March 2–5, 2023. Tickets go on sale on 11/24/2022 at 10 a.m.
