Article: Asterix the Briton
Posted: October 8, 2012

Asterix and Obelix come to our British shores in the fourth of their live-action movies, opening in France on October 17th 2012. Originally called Astérix & Obélix Au Service De Sa Majesté (or ‘On Her Majesty’s Service), it arrives in English under the title Asterix & Obelix: God Save Britannia on November 8th, in 3D and with Catherine Duneuve playing the British monarch. You can watch the French trailer below. This release is a good occasion to revisit how René Goscinny and Albert Uderzo’s best-selling double-act in France made the jump to Britain in comics form.
