Emily Blunt speaks from the red carpet at the "Gnomeo and Juliet" movie premiere held at the El Capitan Theatre on January 23, 2011 in Hollywood, California.
In the animated comedy adventure "Gnomeo and Juliet," Shakespeare's revered tale gets a comical, off-the-wall makeover. Directed by Kelly Asbury and showcasing both classic and original songs by Elton John, the film features the voices of James McAvoy and Emily Blunt as Gnomeo and Juliet, who have as many obstacles to overcome as their quasi namesakes when they are caught up in a feud between neighbors. But with plastic pink flamingos and thrilling lawnmower races in the mix, can this young couple find lasting happiness?
"Gnomeo and Juliet" opens in theaters nationwide on February 11.
