The campaign created by RSA Films features Martin Freeman, Tom Felton and Noel Clarke among others

Sosanya and Adrian Scarborough have joined forces in an epic short film for Stand Up To Cancer from RSA Films director Juriaan Booij.

A star-studded line up of actors including Martin Freeman, Celia Imrie, Tom Felton, Noel Clarke, Neil Morrissey, Nina.

Marking the return of the joint national fundraising campaign from Cancer Research UK and Channel 4, the film depicts the stars channelling the relentless, unforgiving and unpredictable behaviours of cancer to beat it at its own game.


The film, set to launch in cinemas from 11th October, opens with Martin Freeman tirelessly swotting up on fundraising ideas late into the night. As the camera then cuts from one celeb to the next we see Celia Imrie remembering a lost loved one; Joe Dempsie and Nina Sosanya pummelling boxing pads; Tom Felton scaling a climbing wall; Noel Clarke smashing world records; Neil Morrissey break dancing and Adrian Scarborough dressed head to toe as a carrot, all to raise vital funds for life-saving cancer research.

Of the film Juriaan said: “when I was 16 my mother was diagnosed with bowel cancer. She and our family experienced first-hand the devastation it can cause. That’s why I wanted to create this film for Stand Up To Cancer, to show that those who fundraise for life-saving cancer research are every bit as relentless, unforgiving and unpredictable as the disease itself. It is thanks to research that she is still alive today.”

The Stand Up To Cancer campaign will continue throughout October.
