Rip It Up: Team Mighty Boosh Are Back With Aaaaaaaah!
Pray to the Mighty Boosh above! Julian Barratt and Noel Fielding are back. The comedy duo will be taking to the screen in a new feature film, Aaaaaaaah!, written and directed by Steve Oram. The first trailer for the film has been released, and it’s a strobing dash through the mad tumble of the film.
What is Aaaaaaaah!?
There’s no hint yet what the plot might be, but it’s listed as a “thriller” on IMDB.
There also seems to be a Spaced feeling in the setting and tone. This may be due in part to the Blood & Ice Cream pedigree in the cast and crew. The director, Steve Oram, appeared in the most recent Simon Pegg/Nick Frost/Edgar Wright collaboration, The World’s End. Alice Lowe, playing an unnamed role in Aaaaaaaah!, appeared in The World’s End and Hot Fuzz.
The cast is a ripper, with Barratt and Fielding joined by Julian Rhind-Tutt (The Hour, Green Wing), Tony Way (Girl with the Dragon Tattoo) and more. Tom Meeten, of Noel Fielding’s Luxury Comedy, will be in the film, though fellow luxe comic Mike Fielding won’t.
Pop-culture cred is right up there, with Toyah Willcox having once been a punk-rock superstar / the narrator of children’s show Brum.
