"Urban Myths" is an anthology series made up of original comedies based on stories that have been passed down over the years. Featuring an ensemble cast that includes Iwan Rheon, Rupert Grint, Ben Chaplin, Katherine Parkinson and Aidan Gillen, these urban legends are represented in a playful and intentionally ambiguous way. Without knowledge of the full story as it happened, imaginations have gone wild as famous folklore figures are recreated with bizarre narratives to follow. Well-known names whose tales are told in the episodes include legendary crooner Bob Dylan, storied actor Cary Grant and famed boxer Muhammad Ali.

Audience Member These short movies could really be amazing the only issue is they cast a lot of actors that can not do the right accent. If the legend is American why would you cast a uk actor who can't do an American accent - it really shows. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 01/09/23 Full Review Read all reviews
