Shakespeare Sisters & Candr Pictures have announced that their star-studded British sci-fi comedy Time Travel Is Dangerous, will be coming to UK cinemas from 28th March.

Narrated by Stephen Fry the film also features stand-out performances from Brian Bovell (Love Actually, Gimme Gimme Gimme), Tony Way (After Life, Game of Thrones), Guy Henry (Harry Potter, Bridgerton: Queen Charlotte), Tom Lenk (Buffy the Vampire Slayer), Laura Aikman (Gavin and Stacey, Archie) & Kiell Smith-Bynoe (Ghosts, Stath Lets Flats).

Time Travel Is Dangerous is a quintessentially British comedy, blending witty dialogue, quirky characters and a touch of the absurd with a heartwarming core.

The ensemble cast surround best friends and shop owners Ruth Syratt and Megan Stevenson, who play characters based on themselves, bringing their own vibrant personalities and undeniable chemistry to the screen. The film is set around their actual Muswell Hill vintage shop ChaChaCha, bringing a real-life documentary element to the sci-fi mockumentary.

Best friends Ruth and Megan run a vintage shop in Muswell Hill. When they stumble across a time machine, it occurs to them that stock is much cheaper if they ‘borrow’ from the past - well, it’s free. They don't want to change history, or rob banks, they just want to find a nice Victorian lamp or authentic 80s bum bag without getting sucked into the hellish time-space vortex that is “the Unreason”. The thing is, Time Travel Is Dangerous.

Time Travel Is Dangerous celebrated international premieres at Austin Film Festival, FrightFest Halloween & Trieste Science+Fiction Festival where it has received critical acclaim with Sci-Fi Now calling it "endearing, surreal and funny" and MovieJawn labelling it a "hilarious, exciting, nerve-wracking adventure that made me question my beliefs on what a sci-fi movie is supposed to be."

Coming to UK Cinemas 28th March.
