Empire of Light: Olivia Colman and Micheal Ward reveal favourite cinema experiences

Empire of Light star Micheal Ward has revealed that a screening of 2008 dance franchise sequel Step Up 2: The Streets helped him to fall in love with the movies.

The 25-year-old star told Yahoo UK that being able to share in the film's joy with his friends after the credits rolled was hugely important to him.

"We used to go [to the cinema] on non-school uniform day, me and my friends and stuff," said Ward.

Empire of Light is in UK cinemas now.
