The Christophers
UK/US 2025, 15, 100 mins, black comedy, art
The Christophers is a critically acclaimed 2025 black comedy directed by Steven Soderbergh (Erin Brokovich) starring Ian McKellen, Michaela Coel, Jessica Gunning and James Corden.
The story follows Julian Sklar (Ian McKellen), a well-known eccentric painter based in London. In the 1990s, he completed two series of paintings called The Christophers based on his lover at the time. A third series of Christophers remained unfinished. His reputation has faded as he has aged so unscrupulous children Barnaby and Sallie hire Lori Butler, a young artist who has not exhibited in years, to pose as his assistant and finish The Christophers behind his back. They plan to sell the finished Julian Sklar paintings for a fortune after his death...
