The Young Victoria expands empire on YouTube
We are all very excited to be working with Momentum Pictures on the launch of The Young Victoria, a film from Academy Award® winners Graham King and Martin Scorsese. Lead actress Emily Blunt (Devil Wears Prada), gives a stunning performance as The Young Victoria, charting the Queenâs early rise to power – from an object of a royal power, to her romantic courtship and legendary marriage to Prince Albert. The film also features an outstanding British cast including Jim Broadbent, Mark Strong, Paul Bettany, Miranda Richardson and Rupert Friend.
To date the film trailer on YouTube has received 21,264 views so far which is a fantastic achievement considering the film does not screen until March 2009. If you take a look at the comments associated with the video, a member of the actual cast has got involved in the conversation and other viewers have replied back asking about the film; in particular what Emily Blunt as an actress was like to work with.
This is a great example of the power of social media and our ability to reach out and engage with viewers in conversation about the film.
