Aug 1 2024 Share

Hollywood icon Denzel Washington has revealed that Gladiator 2 has been the biggest film he’s ever worked on.

This means that Washington’s biggest ever film will be a film filmed on one of the world’s smallest independent countries, our very own Malta!

Washington who has been in massive films and productions such as Remember The Titans, The Equalizer and Malcom X, revealed in awe that the crew managed to build the Colosseum just for the film.

The film is set to be released next November and will feature many Maltese sights as the backdrop of the Ancient Roman times that the film is situated and based in.

The grant came after discussions with Ministers Byron Camilleri and Owen Bonnici.

With the funds secured, the parish plans to utilise the portico as a viewing platform for visitors and as a venue for events and fundraising activities. Additionally, a planned cafeteria will be established at ground level.

Fr. Camilleri stated, “This agreement is a win-win. The parish secures its goal of restoring the portico, while visitors will enjoy the spectacular view from the roof. With the cafeteria at ground level, we have successfully aimed to make the church’s maintenance more sustainable.”

St. Paul’s Bay Local Donates Drinks To Local Youth Council

Aug 1 2024 Share

A local St. Paul’s Bay man, who goes by the name of David Borg, has donated some alcoholic drinks to the local youth council for their hard work preparing for the local festa which took place a few days ago.

St. Paul’s Bay celebrates the feast of Our Lady of Sorrows every year in the final weeks of July, but local organisations such as the local youth council spend the majority of the year working hard preparing for the spectacle to make it special for everyone.

The donation must have gone down as a treat for the young Pawlin, who surely enjoyed the boxes of alcoholic drinks and made use of them to enjoy their well deserved off time.
