It all began innocently enough with a simple tweet by Russy last week. 

 

A few days later, it was announced by the lovely people at Paramount Ireland that Russell Crowe and co-star Douglas Booth would be attending not one, but THREE premieres in the space of one day. Stopping off in Edinburgh, Manchester and our own fair city, Crowe was going on a whirlwind tour.

Crowe landed shortly after twelve this morning and made his first stop in Kehoe's where he sank a pint with none other than Boyzschown's Ronan Keating. One of the barmen was lucky enough to get a quick snap with Crowe. 

 

 

Crowe and Booth were then met on the red carpet at Savoy by our very own Mike Sheridan. Crowe then worked the rope line and mingled with the crowd before kicking off proceedings for the lucky people inside. He even cracked a joke about Ireland's recent Six Nations victory and the All-Blacks as well!

And just like that, Crowe was gone on his way to Edinburgh for the next premiere. We're also a little disappointed that he didn't arrive to the premiere in one of those Viking Splash Tour boat-car things.

 

Ah well. There's always next time.
