I along with thousands of fans, a heap of press and the cast and crew behind Clash Of The Titans braved the rain for it’s World Premier in Leicester Square – which had been brilliantly transformed into Ancient Greece, with Damaged columns, Medusa stricken stone soldiers, fireballs, Greek guards and lots and lots of rain (I don’t think ancient Greece is known for it’s rain, but hey it’s London).

I caught up with a couple members of the cast including Alexa Davalous, who said it was great being around Greek God’s all day while filming “I have no complaints whatsoever, it was great fun being surrounded by men in miniskirts.” The lead star of the film Sam Worthington stopped to chat as well about the morale of the story “I’ve got a nine-year-old nephew and in the original he enjoyed all the gods’ tools and I thought that’s not a good message to say to any kid, that you can only succeed if you’re a god. But if you say the message is that if you look deep inside yourself, and find the strength of a man or whoever you are, you can get anything done and it’s much more powerful than any god, then that’s the message I want to give.” Some bright spark also asked him if he’s like a God (wtf) to which he replied “There’s absolutely nothing godlike about me,”I’m not that arrogant.” Nicholas Hoult, joked on the red carpet: “It was very difficult being a serious actor going to work and wearing a skirt and having to fight giant scorpions. it was brilliant!”We all got a bit of Clash Rash from running around and skidding, and we all had competitions of who had the best Clash Rash.”

Sam Worthington, Gemma Arterton, Nicholas Hoult, Alexa Davalos, Jason Flemyng, Mads Mikkelsen, Tamar Hussan, Luke Treadaway and director Louis Leterrier were all in attendance along with Andy Serkis, Lemar, Guy Ritchie, the dance coach with ridiculous eye brows from the X Factor and Brenden Cole.

Things I learnt from the red carpet

*Sam Worthington is pretty funny.

*Alexa Davalos is GORGOUS.

*Madds Mikkelson looks like he eats nails and sh*ts bricks.

*Andy Serkis is a legend. I kept thinking he’s Gollum though, I thought he was gonna say I’m tricksy.

*Gemma Arterton has a tattoo behind her ear.
