IMDb profile |
Just Visiting is a 2001 comedy film and a spin-off of the French films, Les Visiteurs and Les Visiteurs 2. It stars Jean Reno, Christina Applegate, Christian Clavier, Malcolm McDowell, Tara Reid, and Bridgette Wilson, to name a few. It is about a medieval knight and his serf who travel to the 21st century, meeting the knight's descendant. Even though it has a different storyline, it still is considered an official part of the series.
This was Hollywood Pictures' final production before it folded into the management of its parent company, Disney. The horror film Stay Alive began its possible revival in 2006.
[edit] Trivia
As the backstory takes place in 11th-century England and Lord Thibault was to marry the Princess Rosalind, daughter of the reigning King, that would make the monarch none other that Henry II. Her mother would have been Eleanor of Aquitaine and her brothers Richard the Lionhearted and John Lackland.
