Arthur and Luc hit Istanbul

French director Luc Besson stepped to the beuatiful city of Istanbul this morning for the Turkish premiere of his latest movie Arthur and the Minimoys.

Besson is now watching the movie, for the first time in the country, with the Turkish promoters.

He also attended to a book signing at the Ortaköy Cultural Center today at 5 PM.

Unfortunately for Madonna fans “Arthur” will be widely shown throughout the country with the Turkish dubbing, but there is hope to get some subtitled English version screenings at a later time.

“Arthur abd the Minimoys” – the movie – will be in theatres this Friday, December 22.

And here on the right you can have a look at the new cover of the Turkish edition of Besson’s “Arthur and the Minimoys” book.
