Garth Jennings at an event for Son of Rambow (2007)
This holiday season, the new chapter in Illumination’s smash animated franchise arrives with big dreams and spectacular hit songs as the ever-optimistic koala, Buster Moon, and his all-star cast of performers prepare to launch their most dazzling stage extravaganza yet …all in the glittering entertainment capital of the world. There’s just one hitch: They first have to persuade the world’s most reclusive rock star—played by global music icon Bono, in his animated film debut—to join them.

  • Trivia
    'Son of Rambow' is partly based on Garth's childhood experiences of film making with a camcorder. In one scene he had to show a shed on fire. To do this he waved a piece of burning paper in front of the lens and he can be heard saying "This is brilliant. brilliant".
