The British star and Hollywood celebrity Gary Oldman has actually stated he is “very honoured” to review an unique CBeebies going to bed tale for Children in Need.
The 66-year-old Oscar and three-time Bafta champion will certainly state the tale throughout Friday evening’s 2024 version of the charity fundraising program. The tale of “warmth and encouragement and hope” has actually been created especially for Children in Need by Claire Taylor and is based upon a real tale, with pictures from Tim Budgen.
The celebrity, that won an Academy Award for playing Winston Churchill in Darkest Hour in 2018, stated: “Stories have a unique way of inspiring imagination and hope in young minds.
“Hope for young people seems particularly in short supply these days. So I am very honoured to be reading this very special CBeebies bedtime story for BBC Children in Need.
“I hope our story brings warmth and encouragement and hope to children and families watching on the night.”
Oldman, whose tale analysis was introduced on the BBC’s The One Show, is recognized for his duties in the Harry Potter collection as Sirius Black, The Dark Knight trilogy as James Gordon and as Jackson Lamb in the Apple TELEVISION+ dramatization collection Slow Horses.
BBC Children in Need will certainly broadcast on BBC One and iPlayer from 7pm on Friday, live from MediaCity in Salford.
Other stars to have actually reviewed the CBeebies going to bed tale consist of stars Tom Hardy, Kate Winslet and Jack Black, and vocalists Billie Eilish and Abigail Morris (from The Last Dinner Party).
