CHRISTMAS has come early for Star Wars and Batman fans thanks to an Alcester High Street store.
Movie buffs of all ages and from miles around are expect to descend on Star Wars-themed shop Admit One for a special 'Meet and Greet' with the actor Martin Ballantyne.
A Star Wars sandtrooper will also be dropping by, just in time for the release of the new movie Rogue One: A Star Wars Story.
Fans can receive autographs, photographs and ask questions during the event on Sunday, December 18 from 11am.
Shop owner Gail Beck said: "I am really excited because it is going to be just fantastic. A lot of people are expected to attend – I am hopeful it will be big."
Ballantyne’s career spans TV, Films and Theatre but is mostly known in our circles for playing one the Jokers henchmen in The Dark Knight alongside the late Heath Ledger.
He also appeared in Harry Potter and The Half Blood Prince in which he plays the character Scary Face.
He returned to the Harry Potter franchise to play a friend of Mundungus Fletcher in Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 1.
