Dorktastic Returns Adventures of #RichardArmitage in China?
So Richard Armitage went to China for The Hobbit premiere, and it’s been well covered, but I’ve got to add my two.
We’ve been treated to an array of photos of this caliber:
…courtesy of Sarah Dunn and her Leica, and all designed to make us go, “Oooh, Baby!” and I do at times. Yeah, I sometimes think, “Wow…”
But mostly I think, “You’ve come a long way from this, Baby:”

8 years ago, on March 31, 2014, Johnny Depp attended the Chinese Premiere of “Transcendence”, at the 798 Art Zone, in Beijing, China.
> Behind the scenes: One of biggest premiere Johnny ever had.
Johnny’s first visit to China can be considered one of the biggest and busiest he ever had. Although Johnny was only going to stay two days in China, both days were filled with activities.
Just on the first day, Johnny had a Press Conference where he talked about the movie, showed his tattoo and was gifted with a huge abacus (the China’s oldest computer, which Johnny instantly shook as a tambourine) and a huge ticket for his movie.
Later he attended one of the longest invite-only premieres ever, where he had a talk session, signed paintings, wrote in Chinese, met quadruplets who had their had cut to form numbers from 1 to 4 - and who sang for him -, took selfies, and even performed on stage playing guitar with the Chinese rock star David Tao for a cover of the ’90s Chinese rock classic “Yi Wu Suo You” (“Nothing to My Name”) – a powerful anthem song made famous by the Chinese godfather of rock, Cui Jian Yi, for China’s younger generations, with some political overtones.
On the next day, Johnny continued in Beijing and specially invited for dozens of activities as well. And everything during those two days was filmed and became a 60-minute TV special which was broadcasted across China by the Zhejiang TV, in order to celebrate the exclusive release of “Transcendence” in 3D, on April 18 2014, making this the only country to screen the movie in this format.
