Horrid Henry is to make his big screen debut next year when a 3D film based on the children’s book character is released.

Based on the popular children’s books by Francesca Simon, Horrid Henry has also become a long running cartoon series and a live show so I suppose a film is kind of inevitable.

Henry is essentially a giant pain in the arse to his family and everyone he meets and is a more realistic version of Dennis the Menace.

Shooting starts in October with Wild Child director Nick Moore helming the project.
