Co-Stars Out the Russell Brand You Never Knew

The cast of 'Arthur' stepped out for the film's New York City premiere, and the cast had nothing but love for Russell Brand.

Russell, who plays the title role, said that the best thing about playing the billionaire Arthur was that, "He has a childlike sense of fun and wonder and sees the beauty in all people and learns that love is more important than money. What finer message can there be?"

When asked about working with Brand, Helen Mirren said, "He's got a good heart. The Brand heart is a very good heart. He's kind and he's generous and he's fantastic to work with."

Jennifer Garner also gushed about her co-star saying, "Well he's so lovely, and he was so lovely with both of my girls. He's just warm and such a vulnerable and such an amazing actor."

Brand's love interest in the film, Greta Gerwig, said that Brand is "so funny" but added, "Underneath it, he's just a good person, and I think that's what is really amazing about him."

'Arthur' opens nationwide on Friday, April 8.
