Starring Steve Coogan and John C. Reilly as legendary comedy duo Laurel & Hardy, Stan & Ollie is the heartwarming story of what would become the pair’s triumphant farewell tour.

With their golden era long behind them, Stan and Ollie embark on a variety hall tour of Britain and Ireland in 1953. Between personal grievances and dwindling audiences, they face an uncertain future. While the charm of their double-act wins back legions of adoring fans, the duo must pull out all the stops to save their precious decades-long friendship before the final curtain falls.

From acclaimed screenwriter Jeff Pope (Philomena), Stan & Ollie celebrates a unique friendship and legendary working partnership with humour and warmth. Coogan and Reilly deliver performances of nuanced, comic genius – the perfect pair to pay homage to the original kings of comedy.
